- Not really. If you use a memory card as system RAM or have a ROM card with
- XIP (execute-in-place) code then the Amiga will crash when you remove the
- card. Otherwise it depends on the driver to handle insertion/removal correctly.
- By no means should an Amiga crash if you insert a card (especially when there
- is no driver for the card installed).
