It can, and does a very nice job of it; it can resize the bus on a cycle-by-cyle basis. So you could have local 32 bit wide memory on the 68030 daughter card plus a 16-bit wide path to the ST mem section. This would work very nicely if you were careful to keep this like PhysBase and the DMA pointer pointing into ST memory - it would be easy to hack ST-Minix to do this. Ross
