I have a CSA-Mega Midget Racer, 68030/68882 + 2Mb 32-bit RAM. I'm trying to
'tweak' my system to get the most from it, and I wonder if any of you guys
out there can help...

What exactly is burst mode? I don't appear to get any benefit by enabling it.

Are there any problems with enabling the Data cache? I have been warned against
it because of problems with device drivers, but I have had no problems as yet
with my A590 + 50Mb SCSI drive.

What is the trick to auto-config memory? My board Addmems it to recognise it,
but are there any real reasons why it isn't auto-config. It would be far better
if it was.

Thanks for any help,

Phil
