The Blizzard 1230-IV ROM is written for the A1200. I currently have no idea where exactly it fails, but it does, and debugging that would mean a lot of time that I'm not willing to invest. You're free to do so, as removing the SIMM from the Blizzard lets you boot the system, creating a basis for debugging.

If you think about redesigning the whole ACA500, what do you think of an external device for the side expansion slot?
This could save all power problems with an external PSU. No need to open the computer for those who are afraid of that. Room for hard drive or any type of connector (USB, Indivision ECS, etc).
