The megachip does not work on 8a and 8a.1 boards. Reason is different pinout of the used Agnus 8375 Chip inside these models (it's already an 2 Meg Agnus!).
The megachip is designed for the Rev. 5 and Rev. 6a boards with Agnus 8371 or 8372a.

Yes, the megachip is not needed for those machines, just plug in an A500+ 1MB board into the trapdoor.
