"I recently added a combo card with 1.5MB to lokkur, which already

the combo card is overlaying the ram cards.  the only way to get more
ram is to upgrade the mother to 2Mb or upgrade a ram card to 2Mb; both
take a lot of work, but not much engineering.

"Second, there appear to be no jumpers whatsoever on the .5MB cards.

there are 4(5?) of them near the panel; all but one get changed in
upgrading the board to 2Mb.  the default settings are etched and must
be cut...
