I recently received four 1 meg simms from the chip merchants for my IICX.
I figured that I would leave the four original 256k simms in bank A and
install the four new 1 meg simms in bank B. When I booted the system it 
would indicate only 2 megs total ram. I then reinstalled the four 1 meg
simms in bank A and the 256k simms in bank B. When I booted the system
again I got the correct configuration of 5 megs total ram. Was it really
necessary to install the 1 meg simms in bank A and the smaller 256 in
bank B or was it just an odd coincidence?
