I recently required a genuine IBM XT motherboard with 0k.  The date on the
BIOS chip is 1986 and elsewhere on the board it says 256 - 640k.  My question
is twofold:  can this board be populated with 640k using 256x1 and 64x1
chips, and if so, what are the proper dipswitch settings?

The reason I ask the list is because a local service tech told me that
all true IBM XT boards have 128k soldered on board and 3 empty banks
which used 128k piggyback chips to give a total of 512k.  He also said
that the board probably had 256 - 64k written on it instead of the above -
he didnt see the board.  The board I have has 4 empty banks and no soldered
memory.

Thanks for any help!
