So the A3k is booting. It has two SCSI disks, one of them I put into a PC so
that I can copy the files required for the test. There is no Linux installed
on the machine, just the basic AmigaOS3.1. Where do I get a kernel image
(and meory map?) to test?
There are already several expansion boards built in, I would need to shuffle
them around for the GVP board, the memory modules are too tall to fit into
the bottom slow. Is there a trick to pull out a board without taking out the
bridge/raiser board first?
In case video RAM is suitable for testing, maybe one of the already built-in
board would do. There is an Ariadne, an S3 based video card it seems, and
something which looks like a parallel and serial connector. On the next boot
I should write down the IDs to identify the boards... would the video card
be sufficient for the test?
Just to make sure, a standard A3k has Z-III RAM (built-in)?
