I have a 2 meg memory board which does NOT autoconfigure for my A1000.
I want to make it have the functionality of autoconfigure. I know that
there are basically 2 approachs: Modify the kickstart, or have a 
TSR type of program which is executed on reboot.. 

I have two questions:

a. Where can we get info on the kickstart? Aka. where does everything 
	reside? I have done some exploration using a disk editor, but I
	really need more info. (Yes I do have the info from kickmem, kickplay))

b. How does one go about and write a program which would have the 
	functionality of addmem, only that it sticks around on 
	a reboot, so that it would work with games? I am thinking
	along the lines of Eric Haberfellner's AFM program for 
	initializing LUCAS/FRANCES memory.  	

Thanks in advance!
