   After some tinkering, it turns out that the VXL-30 can be re-configured to map   
   the RAM in a "high" mode which enables the GG2+-card to be configured   
   properly. This presents a whole slew of other problems though, since the   
   VXL-30 refuses to boot properly without running the "setvxl" tool, which in   
   itself is pretty straight forward.  It still doesn't work properly though: I   
   cannot run setvxl and the parameter for enableing all the extra RAM connected   
   to the VXL-30 in either user-startup or startup because the Amiga will just   
   throw a guru medition on me before workbench is even booted.    
      
   So to be able to use my Amiga 2000, at the moment, with my GG2+-card, I have   
   to boot the Amiga without startup-sequence, run the command I need to enable   
   the RAM, reboot the Amiga with startup-sequence enabled and then it boots.  I   
   cannot use burst mode or cacheing in the 030 because then the amiga will   
   crash.    
      
   I'm waiting for a TF530 board that I will place in my A2000 instead and this   
   card will either go on sale or in the kids A500.     
      
   More testing to be done though so fingers crossed.
