I'm using Dave Haynie's SetCPU V1.6 with an '030 board on an A500, and
I see that there is an option to add ROMS from expansion devices into
32-bit memory. The documentation mentions the codes required for the 2090A
disk controller.

Does anyone know the equivalent codes for the A590 ROMs? Such things as
manufacturer and product code, start and end address, length are needed.

Also the documentation seems to be a little out of date as there are some
options in SetCPU1.6 which are not mentioned in the docs. I'm particularly
interested in the KickBoot option with KeepExec. I reckon by the sound of
it that this will load Kickstart from the indicated disk/file and retain the
Exec as currently colnfigured. Will this keep the memory structure nodes intact
I wonder? Also, how does one get Kickstart into a file?

Thanks for any help, email preferred.
