And... tadaaa.. it works. Look at all that extra slow RAM, party like it's 1987!
Unfortunately I can't get the 3rd chip working, I suspect it's because kickstart 1.2 doesn't allow it and I need to get a 1.3 kick rom.
This prototype is no good for 1MB chip RAM, but I see what I did wrong and could make it work for 1MB chip in the future.
If somebody wants to replicate this, it's pretty easy and no expensive parts needed.
Cheers,

This works on KS1.3 machines with 512K chipram? Like mine?
Haven't received mine in the mail yet.. But very interested in following up with this (though I assume it would not play ball with my ACA500plus..)
