I am posting this for a friend who does not have a news feed, so please
mail any
helpful replies directly to doncart@kodak.com (Don Cartwright).	

Don has an Amiga 1000 with the extra ram module bringing memory up to 512K.
He has added a MicroBotics memory expansion module to the side expansion port
to add another meg.  The expansion borad has been tested good by the
manufacturer, but Don's machine refuses to boot with it attached.  The noted
sympton at boot time is after inital drive access, the system loops endlessly
trying to load OS into RAM.

Any helpful avenues of investigation will be appreciated.  While I can walk
around in a PC or PS/2, I am fairly ignorant of the Amiga's architecture, and
have been of little help to Don.

Thanks (in advance...)
