Hi guys, I'm not having much luck with my M1.

Specs:

A4000D, entirely recapped, with recapped PSU (perfect 5V and around 12.15V on +12V)
Mediator 4000Di Mk I, which is rock stable (no cold/warm boot issues)
Voodoo 3 2000 SGRAM
Killer M1 with AIC1084 voltage regulator installed (perfect 3.3V checked on the wiki vias)
AmigaOS 3.9 with BoingBag 1 + 2 + 3&4 (tried without 3&4 and same issues)
StackAttack 2 installed
MMCD 2.6 with latest pci.library
Latest Sonnet Library (5.1 iirc)
VoodooInt Yes
VoodooMem 13
VoodooMemOS No (I do get a bunch of recoverable alerts if Yes and everything crashes soon after)
WarpOS No

There is a fan cooling the PCI cards.

The Voodoo works pretty well in RTG and 68k Warp3D.

Here's what happens when trying both in AOS and in the minimal environment the wiki suggests - I'm using the StartPPC script included - when placing the M1 in the first slot, I do get "PowerPC CPU possibly crashed during setup" and no RAM gets added, while with the M1 in the second and third slot (the fourth one is out of the equation because of the huge heatsink) I do get a ramlib error 80000004, and after suspending I can see that the ram gets added (it goes up to 64MB Fast) but everything soon freezes.

Any hints on what might be going wrong?
Thanks in advance.
