Interesting bit about more RAM. There was a similar post some comments below, and it succeeds by using the HDF image file, following a quick guide (pic) that I did.
Also I'd say that the WHDLoad one is the recommended version for easy of use.
Its to run on a CD32 disc, i have no issue running it with fastram using the non crunched version. But the crunched doesn’t want to load, just wondered if there was an issue with it? I got a late 2022 build running on a stock CD32, but seems ram requirements have gone up slightly over the last year and a half, no problems if not possible with the crunched version, just letting you know not working for me.
