You may have given me a clue to a problem I'm having. What exactly was the problem with the 256Kx4 DRAMs that they fixed with Rev 6.2, and would that problem have existed under 4.4, given the board redesign for the 1M chips? I ask because I am having difficulties getting a Hurricane 2800 board with 4 megs of 256Kx4 DRAMs to work under Workbench 1.3.2 with a Rev 4.4 board that has the Super Agnus upgrade. The exact same board and boot disks work fine on a (according to Imtronics, and a look at the board label seems to verify) Rev 6.2 MB with Super Agnus. Also, that same board works on the 4.4 MB under 1.3 (that's what I'm running as I type). We've been trying to track this problem down for a couple of weeks. The system dies if I run the memory config program under 1.3.2, but not under 1.3. If you (or anyone else) knows what the problem was, perhaps a solution might be found that doesn't require a MB swap, which initial research tells me can be more expensive than I can handle right now. Thanks …
