Yes, there is some summary of the hardware on amiga.resources.cx or
something like that. A great sum up of all Amiga cards incl. many pictures
and many DMS archives of the driver disks, but I couldn't find the exact
link atm... :(

Uhm, might be as well...

A2000, no ZII Ram so far. I have 2x 4 MB ZII boards in Osnabrueck at my
parents, but that won't help much now... ;)
I've as well a DKB3128 for the A2630, but the A2000 only has 1 CPU expansion
slot. ;)
Uhm, maybe there are 4 MB or so on the A2091, but can't remember that now...
