Back in 2009 when I removed uarea swap-out [1], I managed to find only *one* user of acorn26 - its former maintainer (bjh21). He managed to boot to single-user mode but run out of time trying multi-user. Since then nobody managed to show acorn26 being usable without uarea swapout. There is really no point to keep it dusting. [1] https://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2009/10/21/msg002198.html -- Mindaugas
