Do either of you happen to know if all the EPIA boards use the same PLCC Flash?

On board is a PLCC form factor 39SF020A. Mouser also carries the 39SF040A, which is a 512k ROM. The pinouts seem to be the same, but
I'm
not sure whether the extra address lines are carried out anywhere.
Does
anyone know whether the EPIA will be able to use the extra 256k?
I think it will, I've used that I'm pretty sure.
Also, I was not planning on getting a BIOS savior. Does anyone have experience with hotswapping flashes on the EPIA? Will bad things
happen
if I do? Do I need to make myself an external board with chip select lines, or can I just hotswap?
hot swap has always worked fine for me.
