Hi Kurt

I've seen your follow up message, but I just wanted to confirm that the 250MHz modules do seem to work fine in Ultra 2 systems. About six months ago I pulled a 250MHz/1MB module off a junked E450 motherboard and it booted into Solaris 8 on my U2 with no apparent problems. According to my notes, the 250MHz module was a 501-4857 part.
