I'm expereincing similar problems with the Lucas board installed in my A1000.
With no expansion peripherals connected to the Amiga, Kickstart 1.2 and 1.3
work just fine. When I add the Starboard2 memory card I just purchased and
boot up with Kickstart 1.2, I never get the hand requesting the Workbench disk.
I have tried various flavors of the 7474 in U9 of the Lucas board but it 
doesn't seem to help. I checked my PALs on the daughter board and they are
the ones manufactured by MMI. I had previously installed the grounds for 
PALs, so now I'm looking for other possible solutions. I remember a posting
concerning some filter caps that may be needed on the Starboard2 card, but
I didn't have one then and just glanced at article. Any suggestion are
welcomed!
