That's a prejudiced subject line isn't it?  But searching through the
archives I turned up Dave Anderson's <@no_email_address - fix your MUA
Dave!> message of 16 June where he solved his anomolous (panics in
different places) panic problem by swapping out RAM for RAM in another
system.

The same thing happened to me today after bringing 2.1.5R up on a
P133, HX chipset, 32MB of 60ns EDO.  Panics in different places around
the time when the slices are mounted...and usually with nasty
corruption of files in the root slice.  32MB of 60ns non EDO works
fine.  EDO may or may not work under DOS/'doze [who can say? they
don't push the system]

Usual cache disable/tear everything out except minimum
necessary/fiddle with timing didn't help.

So Dave, if you're reading this, was that swapped-in memory non-EDO?
Is anyone sucessfully running 2.1.5R on a Triton HX chipset with >=
32MB of EDO RAM?
