Vampire V1200 V2 AmigaOS 3.2.1 ROM Question

Long-time lurker, first time post, etc.

It seems that the LoadModule ROMUPDATE part of the start-up sequence of AmigaOS 3.2.1 that is trying to put the 3.2.1 ROM into memory is clashing with the 3.1 ROM flashed onto my V1200 V2 card, resulting in a boot loop. How do I get them to play nicely together, please?

I think one option is to flash the 3.2.1 ROM onto the card, but is there another way?

    If you have copy of the kickstart 3.2.1 rom, place in in your DEVS:Kickstarts directory and add these lines to the beginning of your startup-sequence.
VERSION >NIL: exec.library 47
IF WARN
    Apollomap devs:kickstarts/kick47102.rom
ENDIF

Everything is going digital nowadays with games, movies and audio, even books are heading to digitals. Software and business applications are heading to digital. It is just amazing now that even Amiga kickstart that was back in the 1980's which used to be physical have also became digital and how you can share kick.rom as well workbench all digital. Amazing!

That worked, thanks, except I had to use vampiremap instead of apollomap because I'm still on 2.15 (that's a question for another thread!). I also had to remove all 68xxx.library files from LIBS: too (thanks to a post on AmigaOS 3.2 that I found on EAB) to escape the boot loop.
