I use this line at the top of the startup-sequence for my ACA1232/33MHz:

C:ACATune -cache on -burst on -vbrmove -maprom DEVS:Kickstarts/myamiga.rom >ram:acaoutput.txt

When I first tried the ACATune tool last year (v1.7) I immediately discovered it was buggy, and that for the options that I wanted they (the arguments) had to be in that order exactly...or it just didn't work.

I also direct output to a textfile in ram instead of oblivion (good film btw!) so that I can easily see if anything is wrong by simply reading the text file (especially helpful to new ACA users).

Of course, not all ACATune options are available for all ACA cards... so make sure to read the ACATune docs thoroughly pertaining to your particular ACA card. :)

The bit I was unsure on was that if you loaded the 31.rom into the ram but the physical kickstart was 3.0 would this create a black hole and end time and space.

This only happens when you don't have enough ram to load the Kickstart image into. So there's no need to worry.... but please, please I beg you... don't attempt this on an unexpanded 1200 (although I hear the black hole created is fairly localised so we'd all be okay :), but I'm not sure you'd make it).
