I have just installed the Cris Eriving ram expansion into my A1000.  The
memory seems to be OK.  Addmem puts it all in fast memory, and AVAIL knows
that its there.  But when I actually try to use the memory, the machine
crashes!  It may be that the "Workbench 1.2 hardware fix" is not working,
because I have Kickstart in ROM, (via Kickstart Eliminator).  I am using
Workbench 1.3 and ARP 1.3 .

I heard of something called "Dave Haynie's addressing mod", which evidently
puts the news memory at address C00000, instead of 080000.  This might
solve my problem, but where can I get information about this modification?

Can anybody help with info about the mod, or other helpful hints?  I have
not yet tried to rip out the "Workbench 1.2 hardware fix", and use the
software fix instead.

Many thanks.
