Hi all,
I experience a little problem with 2.3.99-pre3 on an SS20 I just
got. The machine contains 128MB (a 64MB module and two 32MB modules).
SPARCstation 20 (1 X 390Z55), No Keyboard
ROM Rev. 2.25, 128 MB memory installed, Serial #3520012.
Ethernet address 8:0:20:21:48:d, Host ID: 7235b60c.
Here's what 2.2.1 (from Debian 2.1 install) says at boot :
PROMLIB: obio_ranges 5

Irk ! Looks like one 32MB module (or half of both 32MB sticks) is
gone... Too bad.
Would anybody have a clue about this ?
I'll try previous versions tomorrow to try to identify which patch
killed my precious memory... ;-).
Marc.
