VD0:, the ASDG Recoverable Ram Disk, will usually not work with
the Insider memory expansion or other memory products that place
themselves in the $c00000 address space. This is due to a destructive
method of determining that memory at $c00000 exists. It also may not
work correctly if there is bad memory or if the refresh logic on
the board is fouled up. If you have diagnostics for your memory,
run them (a good diagnostic will take around 30 minutes on a
stock A1000 to thoroughly check 2 Megabytes - use that as a guage
for determining whether your diagnostics are really testing out
your memory).
