This feels like it might be an RBUS_MIN_START issue; see cbb(4).
Yes! I built a new kernel with that option (it would help if it would be commented in the kernel GENERIC.. this way it is a bit black magic) and both slots work now!

As I was at it, I upgraded kernel to 6.1.3 !

You wrote months ago that it probably was needed only for the 600E, but I "only" have a 600. (They don't make thinkpads as they used to... nostalgic note).

Thanks again,
