Generally, the same as on Amiga.

THose are Amiga 3000 and Amiga 4000 machines with on-mainboard fast
ram from 0x7000 0000 to 0x7fff ffff (max) and CPUboard RAM from
0x8000 0000 up, where the last 512 kBytes are also (or instead -
I'm not sure) accessible at 0xFsomething, so you can put PPC trap
vectors there.

There are alos Amiga 1200 ppc boards, that have the RAM somewhere 
else.

Frank will know the exact numbers by heart, I guess ;-)
