- No there is no memory on the 2091. All memory is on the GForce. I had
- the 2091 in the 2nd slot to the left of the CPU slot as it wouldn't fit
- in the first slot. Th HD on the GForce is on the left of the card and
- the HD on the 2091 is on the right of the card. I tried the Picasso in
- the 3rd slot to the last one where the bridgeboard would go if I had one,
- and still no access to the 2091, moved the 2091 to each slot, still no
- access, moved the Picasso II to the 1st slot next to the CPU and the 2091
- to the 3rd slot and still no access. Here is my showconfig:
-
- PROCESSOR: CPU 68030/68882fpu/68030mmu

- Yes, when I download to the HD on the GForce I get errors everytime it
- writes to the HD, but I don't on the 2091 or Ram disk.
