I have a problem that someone out there might be able to help me with. 
Recently I purchased an AE GS-RAM from a friend that wanted to upgrade his
system.  With it came a disk for updating Appleworks to use the expanded
memory.  Also included on this disk were two programs called AECACHE.SYSTEM
and AECACHE.SETUP, the latter being an init.

My problem is I copy the init file to */System/System.Setup and reboot and my
machine crashes.  This init (AECACHE.SETUP) is supposed to install a disk
caching CDA that will cache my 3.5" disk drive.  Instead it dies.

If I launch the AECACHE.SYSTEM (a P8 system file) the CDA installs and
everything works fine.

I am running on a ROM 1 Apple IIgs with 1.75 megabytes on ram.  I am using
System Disk 5.0.2 (hurray Apple!) with a TWGS, a Sonic Blaster, and a CMS SCSI
card.  I have removed all my other inits to see if there's a conflict but
still get the same crash.

Any suggestions?
