I have the 8mb kipper2k + IDE combo. I was going to install it in my A500 but decided not to. Do I *have to* install the wire coming off of the kipper2k board into the CPU slot, or can I wire it into a free zorro slot? I have a A2630 installed in the cpu slot.

AFAIK installing a board in the A2000's CPU slot disables the CPU socket. I don't know if adding any expansion in there will work with the A2630 in-place.
FWIW this thread might be helpful to you: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=74191
It mentions an additional page on Kipper's site that details where the two pins need to be soldered to, but that page on his site is coming up with a 404. :(

I think I found another post, but i'm hesitant to solder anything. The kipper2k was so I can use the CF part to replace my SCSI hd. I'll just buy a SCSI2SD board and be done with it.
Here is what I found (I *think* this is what I would be able to do) :

On the A2000 signals /INT2 and /OVR may prove a little tricky, however can be sought from various places on the motherboard
_INT2
[ U102 ] Pin 21 - ( 8520 CIA )
[ U200 ] Pin 16 - ( Paula )
[ U300 ] Pin 21 - ( 8520 CIA )
[ CN600 ] pin 19 - (CPU EXPANSION PORT)
[ CN601 ] pin 19 - (Zorro Bus)
[ CN602 ] pin 19
[ CN603 ] pin 19
[ CN604 ] pin 19
[ CN605 ] pin 19
[ CN304 ] pin 10 - ( Internal Serial )
_OVR
[ U102 ] pin 29 - ( GARY )
[ U800 ] pin 40 - ( Buster )
[ CN600 ] pin 17 - (CPU EXPANSION PORT)
[ CN601 ] pin 17 - (Zorro Bus)
[ CN602 ] pin 17
[ CN603 ] pin 17
[ CN604 ] pin 17
[ CN605 ] pin 17
If there is no obvious terminals to patch from CN600 ( CPU expansion port), then I would humbly suggest sourcing these signals from -
Gary ( _OVR ) [ pin 29 ]
Paula ( _INT2 ) [ pin 16 ]
These two signal sources are the next physical closest. to the adaptor.
