RAM-4-GS goes in the memory expansion slot, towards the front of the
mainboard, the only slot not in line with the others.
I'd put the SCSI card in either slot 1 or slot 2 and be sure to set it to
"my card" in the control panel.
The Superdrive controller should go in slot 5, again set to "my card" in
control panel. Plug in the 3.5" drives first, then daisy chain the 5.25"
drives.
The Lance GS card I would put in slot 1 or 2, which ever is not being used
by the scsi. Again, "my card" in the control panel.
You don't really need the super serial card unless you need to run software
that is incompatible with the GS built-in serial ports. If you need a serial
port, you could just toggle "my card" on slot 1 or 2.
That's how I would set it up. Good luck and enjoy. You have a nice little GS
system there.
