- Wasn't the vmunix.720 in the incoming directory instead of the kernel
- directory?

- The 720 kernel will have a flag that you can binpatch to disable the A3000
- check. The symbol is _a3000_flag and should be patched to 0 if you don't have
- an A3000, but do have memory above 0x07000000. There is also a corresponding
- flag for the A4000: _a4000_flag should be binpatched to a 1 to run on an
- A4000 (sorry, I haven't figured out a way to automatically detect it yet).
- I think it should work with the A2091.
