i think the last time this argument ran through amiga.org i tried to get the arguer to understand that the problem really is with the hardware. the os has no problem with 8megs of chipram. the hardware is incapable of it. any software to remidy the situation would result in an enormously slow bloated mess. as in probably 10 to 12 megs of fast ram being used and data being shifted back and forth from actual chip to fast. i told them to prove it possible. no proof yet.

emulating chip ram is worse than the lack of chip ram in the first place. there are ways around 2meg of chip problems. and if you absolutly have to have 8megs, use winuae.
Oh yeah?!?
Well your stupid bit is set,
and its read only!
