   Not to my knowledge. You may just have to hope for a trade with
somwone somewhere, or sell the card on comp.sys.apple2.marketplace
and try to buy a RAM card for your GS that's friendly with ROM 3s.

   If it just hangs, I don't think a walkthru would be of much help--
sounds like a bug somewhere. Can you be more specific as to which
version of the system software you're trying to unpack GSHK from, how
much memory, etc? I'd also suspect a possible interaction with a bad
init/da/etc that might be causing the problems. Try holding down the
shift key when booting starts to avoid any system addons that may be
causing this problem.
