Howdy David,

I may be going out on a limb here but one of my machines runs Linux and
Freebsd 2.1.5 with a single 16 meg non parity simms chip. You may want to
check the simms - I had a bad 8 in another machine that screwed everything
up during install for both Linux and FreeBSD. Make sure your machine
allows single simms modules (some don't and require 2 8's to get 16)

If I'm wrong - I appologize to the group for responding - but I am doing
it.
