No chance  :-x  :-x

Atleast not with a simple reflash.

Maybe it would be possible to do something with a soldering iron .....

Speaking of that, I do remeber a patch for the 2630 that replaced the 1mbit ZIP-chips with
4mbit-ones, allowing 16mb onboard.

Anybody with a link to that ??

Not correct (atleast not 100%) ...

More RAM on the slot is possible, just like you can have more than 16mb in the
A2000-MMU(CPU) slot, which only has 24 address lines.

There even was (probraly never released) a RAM-card for the A4000 that would
go between mobo and CPU-card.

Mmmmmh ....

But when it is really limited to 128mb, where do the 8mb of the CV-PPC map to ?

Or the 16/32mb of a Voodoo in a GRex ?

Hell, where the CS-PPC/MK3's whole PCI-address-space ???

Wasn't I told by all those "boings" that OS4 is in beta for well over 1 year now, while it
only runs on PPC for a few months (and thats was still in emu ) ????

Sligthly confused  :-?

Just like the RAM (except maybe the 1st 8mb) on an accel for A2000/500 or A1200,
as these only have 24 address-lines on the CPU-slot.
