I was sidetracked by two issues: - I had one bad dimm that was causing cache error exceptions - I was booting with more memory that can be mapped by KSEG0 - it seems that the pmap code doesn't support this Anyways, this is a milestone for the SWARM platform and I thought I would share it with the list. best Neel
