If you have 1 MB of RAM, then transferring a flopppy image to the RAM disk isn't very wise. It has nothing to do with the chipmem/fastmem configuration, it's simply that the disk image is too big to fit in the available RAM.
You have around 740 kB of free memory after booting, and an ADF file is almost always bigger than that, hence it won't fit.
On the other hand, upgrading your RAM to 2MB will let you download the file to the RAM disk and then transfer it to your CF card. Chip or fast doesn't matter as long as you have a free continous block of memory the size of the ADF file, which you should get with a 1MB RAM expansion.
You say that you have a 4GB CF card in your A600. Transfer the ADF files to a directory on this card instead of to the RAM disk.
