Good Work!  There is always someone trying to resurrect their unexpanded 500 without the knowledge to do what you have outlined so well.  Maybe this board would consider adding your contribution to a Wiki or some other knowledge base that is easily accessed.

Even when you expand an Amiga to the max, there is still something magical about a minimalist hardware system (especially if it is your first Amiga) that is tweaked to live well inside its limits.  The OS really seems to shine.  My favorite minimal system is an A500 with 4 or 8 Megs of fast ram and configured with half as a RAD: drive.  Amazingly fast.

@ mikkel zen

I wonder if your floppy drive is on the very edge of functioning within spec (able to spin at the correct RPM, clean heads, clean microswitches).  If you clean and lube your drive, you may find many of those floppies work great.  Just a thought.
