Installing the vMap is "fun", for certain values of "fun", given the rubbish ribbon cable termination on the link between the Microdrive and the motherboard. You may want to solder a turned pin header onto the end before trying to connect it up. I've no idea how they managed to get the wires into the sockets in the first place.
