Hi, Looking at your lovely project :-) Can the RAM be not installed or disabled. I'd like to combine it with a PiStorm (not for me BTW) but the 8 MB might conflict with Raspberry RAM? Thanks.

Hi @Sedrickgates, It can not run without RAM as Kickstart expects 8MB at boot (Autoconfig feature). To disable the RAM the CPLD's code needs to be updated. Due to lack of time I have no plans for any further changes other than bug fixes.

Regards Oleg

Hello. I was able to successfully program the CLPD. But when compiling the project I got some warnings (about 15). Will there be any problem with this? After everything is assembled on the Amiga, it seems to me that the system is unstable... warnings

Hi, I don't remember any critical warnings. As it is a hobby project, there is no guarantee that it will work flawless in any Amiga. Feel free to improve it.
