Chris,
The 8up! board allows for the following different memory sizes:
– 512k
– 1M
– 1.5M
– 2M
– 2.5M
– 3M
– 4M
– 4.5M
– 5M
– 6M
– 8M
I am using the 3M configuration. The board acts like two memory boards.
Two device sizes can be used, 256kx8 and 1Mx8. You can use the same
device size on the whole board, or have one half of the board use 256kx8
size and the other side use the 1Mx8 size. For the 3M, one side uses four
256k devices, the other side uses two 1M devices.
If I changed my SCSI interface from the 2090A to something like the 2091
which has room for memory (now was that 1 meg or 2???), I could configure
the 8up! to 2.5M (or 1.5M if the 2091 has room for 2M) and have a full 7.5
meg of autoconfig ram.
My system has 7 megs of autoconfig ram and, thanks to DKB, 2 megs of chip
ram, for a total of 9 megs. Never enough memory, especially when running
AVT_Master and ImageMaster and want to still do other things!
