They said: "AmigaMINIX boots from a normal AmigaDOS floppy".  That sounds
like it uses S:startup-sequence.  Then they said "so it can determine what
keymap you use".  That seems to be a very unambiguous reference to AmigaMINIX
being started near the end of the startup-sequence, after your SetMap
command.  Which means AddMem can go in there, no problem.
