- The later ZKick versions handle $C00000 memory more clever, with the kickstart
- patched to start looking for memory at $C80000 and up instead.

- Let me guess, you have a Spirit Inboard 1000 1.5Mb memory board with RTC,
- right? :)
-
- It will work fine with the later ZKick versions. Alternativly, you might want
- to look for the kick-solution that splits the kickstart into two halfs, and
- put 256Kb into the WCS originally used for KS 1.0-1.3, and only uses 256Kb of
- your normal memory. It works quite well. I don't remember the name of the
- program package though.
