The company I work for just purchased a 16 Mb array of memory. The board is manufactured by Standard Memories (P/N Pincomm 860SX). The memory backplane is configured as follows: slot1 L0200 rev BE slot2 EMC Corp 16 Mb array (p/n 240-121-903) slot3 Standard Memories 16 MB array (p/n 860SX) slot4 empty slot5 L9200 rev B1 slot6 empty slot7 empty slot8 L9200 rev B1 slot9 L0222 rev B3 When the system was configured with just the DEC 4 MB board and the EMC 16 MB board no diagnostics were reported. When the Standard Memories array was added the following messages printed on the console after CPU initialization. Warning: this system has a memory configuration that is unsupported and untested by Digital Equipment Corp. The micros ran fine on all 36 MB of memory and Berkeley 4.3 BSD booted fine and is currently running without any problems so far. Does anybody know what could be causing this message to appear? -- Paul J. Lucchina ...!uunet!hsi!lucchina Health Systems International lucchina@hsi.com New Haven, CT 06511
