2.1 Introduction

Sections 2.2 - 2.6 contain several standalone tables. Table 10 describes the system memory map,
Table 11 lists the DMA channels, Table 12 shows the I/O map, Table 13 defines the PCI
configuration space map, and Table 14 describes the interrupts. The remaining sections in this
chapter are introduced by text found with their respective section headings.

2.2 Memory Map

Table 10 lists the system memory map.
