"I believe that if you run "CPU" you will see that you are indeed already
running "FASTROM" and I tend to suspect that this is the problem."
That depends. Early versions of CPU did not know how to deal with an '040's
MMU, so it would report things like "FASTROM" even though Kickstart was NOT
remapped. Just because CPU says so, doesn't mean it is so…
"That is, trying to use GVPCpuCtrl to establish FASTROM when the machine is
already using FASTROM crashes the machine."
This shouldn't crash the machine, even if both programs correctly redirect
Kickstart. No matter who remaps first, we trap at the hardware level so our
remap would get used and CPU would just end-up wasting 512K of memory.
Hmmm, back to square one…
