Ah maybe.  Honestly I have not looked at it much, just to take the pic.  I really wanted to make sure the machine worked.  I will eventually do a repair, if possible.  I could throw another Toaster card in to see if I get the same result..lol.. But finding the cause would be
the top priority before plugging in another board.

I would repair the popped cap first, and then try it again, I mean at the most we are talking a buck 98 here. $1.98. If it pops again I would try the VR, and look very carefully at the components around the cap. Try plugging the card back in and take some voltage measurements.

Now repeat after me as you turn on the Amiga, you have to yell out

SMOKE CHECK!!!

MorphOS is a MAC done a little better
