Which module is this? 501-xxxx?. I was testing one of the modules from my
670MP, which is a SM512 (double wide, 50mhz with 1M cache each)(these
naming conventions are confusing) and it booted up properly in my SS10,
not sure of the boot prom revision. Looking at the MBBUS FAQs, I'm pretty
sure that none of these modules were rated at 80mhz bus speed, I believe
the SuperCache limited them to 40mhz.
