Hi everybody, I have a small question and maybe you can help.  I have an Amiga 2000 with an A2630 accelerator.  When I try to boot in 68030 mode, my computer locks.  I looked at the A2630 manual and it states to try booting the Amiga with "Fastmemfirst" early in the startup sequence.  Where do I find this program and how do I ensure it is early in the startup sequence?  Thanks.

 IIRC, the A2630 have problems with any kickstart above 1.3 (2.0 and up) if the ROM is version 6.6 or less!

 The program you need is certainly on the A2091 install/prep disk on Amiga's Installer Heaven.

 Or in any 1.3 Workbench disk, if I recall it correctly.

Ok everybody, I successfully downloaded the "fastmemfirst" file, now I need to know how to ensure that it starts first. I suppose dropping it in the WBStartupw won't work, so what do I do? Do I need to edit a specific startup sequence on the system.  Thanks.

 Yes, edit the s-s and put the command like this in very early  order (before setpatch):

 "C:fastmemfirst >NIL:" (no quotes, obviously)
