[comp.sys.amiga.tech] RAM MEMORY TESTING

ajahn@digi.lonestar.org (Alfredo Jahn) (07/10/90)

I have a RAM memory test program (supplied by GVP) which can be used to 
test memory.  My question is:  If I have a 5 meg machine (A2000 with 1 
meg on the mother board, a 2 meg amiga board and a GVP controller with
2 meg on it) what starting and ending address do I give the ram test 
program so that all of ram gets tested.  Here is what GVP told me to 
do to test the 2 meg on the GVP controller...

 1) boot and press ctrl-d before the FastMemFirst gets executed
 2) test mem starting at 230000 and ending at 3fffff.

Is it possible to test starting at 0000000 ??  Where is the OS loaded?
Will I crash the system if I start that low?

Please reply via email at my "home" node:

Thanks in advance...
