Subject: Installing more memory in an SE30

I recently broke down an bought an additional 4Mb of ram for my SE30.  I purchased
the memory from the Chip Merchant which has been discussed recently on the
net.  4 Mb of ram for $163.80 including shipping was a good deal.  The cheapest
I've found 4Mb of RAM in Austin is $255 (street prices). I saved $91.

This leaves me with one problem however, what is the best procedure for installing
them.  The SIMMs were shipped with no instructions whatsoever.  The Chip Merchant
is *DEFINITELY* a no frills operation!  The box the memory was shipped in
was certainly large enough to cram some instruction in but that is another thread.

While I do have hardware experience, what I would like to know is:

Does anyone have a simple procedure for installing them?  Are there any
tricks to know?  Any warnings?  Do I have to pull the motherboard and if so
how is it held in place?  Do I have to move the memory (1MB) which is already
installed to different sockets?  Any software configuration? 

Thanks in Advance
-Rodney
