I just wanted to clarify some points...
(1) Both systems have only one power supply
(2) When the third memory module is added to the AS2100A, it doesn't
boot from /genvmunix. It hangs/stops on the line where it checks the
SCSI
(3) The memory module works perfectly on the AS2100 with a 3CPU & 3 mem
configuration or 3CPU @ 4 mem module configuration..
Hope this clears some
waiting for suggestions.
