Chris,
The BBs must have part of the autoconfig memory space for the Janus
interface, thus you generally cannot have more than 6.5 meg of fast ram in
the normal address space. It's possible that if the 32 bit memory can be
allocated outside of this space then the BB might work, although I haven't
had the facility to test this. My GVP card cannot place its memory above
the normal autoconfig space. I did have a Hurricane 68020 card which used
an Addmem program to install its 32 bit ram and could install the memory
above the normal address space, but when I once tried it the BB still
wouldn't work. That might, however, have been specific to the Hurricane,
which was an old accelerator dating back to the earliest days of the A2000.
