In response to my message about sparc Station 2 crashing
with the error: Memory address alignment, I got 2 suggestions:
- perhaps you have 1MEG SIMMS in lower Memory
banks than your 4MEG SIMMS, the 4MEG SIMMS *MUST* be in the lower
numbered banks.
- A bad memory simm. Take out the CPU board and reseat the simms.
or try replacing them one at a time until it no longer crashes.
On the error panic: swap_xlate
I got one response from pwh@bradley.bradley.EDU :

We are trying to find a bad memory simm but have yet to locate it.
We do not have a third party SCSI driver so that suggestion was ruled
out.
