There is, of course, the Disto(?) 1- and 2-meg designs that NitrOS-9
should support.  And there was Paul Barton's NoCan3(?) that went to
8-meg as well -- I'm not sure how much support there is for that one.

An SRAM-based card would have a different hardware design, but
it certainly could have a programming architecture similar (or
identical) to the designs mentioned above.  If you are only doing a
windowed-memory (a la DOS EMS memory) or RAMdisk device then I would
be much less intersted.
