I contacted a local (Kansaas City) amigaphile and Toaster technician,
and he gave me the lowdown on hardware requirements for the Toaster and
Toaster Flyer systems.

The Toaster 2000 and Toaster 4000 cards are different, and require
different software to operate. The physical difference is that the 4000
card was made a bit shorter so it would easily fit in the standard slot
on an A3000 or A4000 desktop. The A2000 card was in its own dedicated
video card slot, and wasn't limited in lengh.

I'm getting the software from him, and we're setting up a test machine
to do a go/no go test on these cards. He also does componenet level
repairs on motherboards, etc. for most Amigas, if anyone is interested.
Of course that is limited by parts availability.
