Well it seems that C Limited, former CardCo., is still having some
problems with the early rev's of their aMEGA boards.  As you have
probably seen posted, there is a correction to get rid of uneeded 
wait states on the aMEGA board.  I did the fix as the instructions
said and still had the problem that the machine would GURU on power
up.  A representative at C Limited gave me the following correction,
in addition to switching the jumpers.

  ONLY TRY THIS IF:
  1. You have an early revision of the aMEGA board that "missed the last 
     step in the assembly process", as described in the previous posting.
  2. You followed the fix posted and you still can't run the
     Amiga for more than a few minutes without it crashing.
  3. You won't blame or flame me should adverse results result.

 Hold the aMEGA board right side up, and chip side toward you. Locate the 
 edge connector.  Towards the left side of the board, just above the left 
 end of the edge connector there is a 7486 chip.  Connect a 150 pico-farad 
 capacitor (or close to 150, I used a 220 pico-farad cap) to pins 6 & 7 of 
 this chip.  Thats it, hope it helps.  

	  0 <---- This is the ~150 pico-farad capacitor.

   It's a shame that you need to go through all this for something that
   you pay $$$ for, but I must say, having the extra meg is worth the 
   bother!!
