- I have a VXL30 Accelerator with 8 Meg 32 bit Ram card in my A500..
- VXL30 should allow copying The Amiga Kick Start Rom to Ram by using FASTROM
- command. However, this results in following message:
-
- - Memory cannot be allocated for FASTROM option -
-
- My 8 Meg 32 bit Ram card is mapped low (at address 0020 0000).
- If I map it high FASTROM works ok but the DMA function of my A590 controller
- cannot access memory from 0800 0000 and up, unless I change the mask value
- to 0X00FFFFFC which I have not yet tried.
-
- All 16 bit FASTRAM is removed.
- ChipRam=1 Meg.
- The VXL documentation does not mention that FASTROM will not work when 32
- bit Ram is mapped low.
-
- I will appreciate feedback from someone having knowledge about
- my problem.
