Problems with GVP 68040/33 64mb ram

[Greywolf12]

I'm getting an error at bootup "Cannot remap soft-loaded Kickstart image." any ideas?
Also the Hard drive seems to be slow could it be that I have a 1gig partition or would I be better off using a DKB RapidFire instead?


Thank you in advance for your help.
P.S. sorry the machine is a a2500 rev6.3 megachip with KS45.57

I finally installed the last 16mb of ram today so I never used it before im using  Workbench 45.3 (3.9) and for the drive speed the windows seem to refresh and open really slow I have another 2000 with the rapidfire with an 80mb and its really snappy with opening windows.

I going to try a clean install and see what happens I do have 2 of the boing bags installed.  The speed of my drive is 1,143,069 can you compare that to yours looks like were almost running the same config.  Just out of curiosity what kind of speed are you getting out of your 040 my Dstone - 21174 /mips 22.16/mflops 6.26.  and one more question will I run into any compatibility problems running PFS?  

Thanks again for all your help its nice to bounce these questions off someone.

Take care

Ok did a clean install and was able to remap the kickstart 1st BoingBag install and work fine the 2nd one wanted to update the kickstart roms so after installing 2 I wasn't able to remap the KS finished with BB3 and BB4 still wasn't able to remap KS so I just went back to the original rom update and everything is working good.  As far as the directory refresh being slow dropped down to 8 color from 16 and its super quick now.

Thank you for your help.
