Ok, now I have a little nagging worry.
Whenever I test my LUCAS board, it either works or it fails on boot
with the green screen.
Now I realize that this is supposed to mean I have bad ram. Obviously
I don't, since nothing like that happens without LUCAS. Should I
be worried, or is it just that the system is picking that particular
time to die on bootup. I should mention that I have a Spirit Inboard
in there too, which is why I left that $C00000 stuff in above.
Just curious.
