3.1.4 and 3.2 won't work with older versions of the Furia firmware, so it does depend on how old your card is. I have a white furia card from about 4 years ago and can never get 3.1.4 to work on mine, it just hangs half way through booting. 3.1 however is fine.

The Shadowrom thing will copy the kickstart rom into fast memory which gives you a nice system speed up (along with the IDE speed up option). It's worth persevering with the "quirks" of the Furia as once you get it going, it really is a speedy little card and there isn't much to tell it apart from an 030 because the IDE access is so fast.

The correct max transfer value is 0X1FE00 which is slightly different to what you've posted above.
