Apple IIGS units with accelerators fail the self test.

Apple HS SCSI card and 8MB of RAM requires that DMA be turned
off on the Apple HS SCSI card.  With a fast accelerator, you would
hardly notice the difference.  It is a small price to pay for 8MB
capability.

Users with RamFAST revision D can have 8MB and DMA too.
