Kim Øyhus has, and as far as I know, he does not have any
problems with 1. or 2.

His RiscBSD problems are SCSI-related.

But, in order to be able to use EDO SIMMs, you have to have
a new motherboard (i.e. RISC OS 3 v. 3.6).

EDO RAM does not work in 3.5-based Risc PC's.

I have tried the same type of SIMM that Kim is running
in his Risc PC 700.
