  No...the limitation is in the VME implementation on the 4/100 cpu
board.  The Sun 3-slot chassis is pretty ordinary; I've run all sorts
of stuff in them...mostly stuff that Sun swears can't possibly
work...for example, there's a 4/400+32mb board+scsi in a 4/110 chassis
running happily about three feet from me...no ill effects on it's
I/O.

  With Sun VME gear, the general rule is...pretty much anything will
work in pretty much any chassis, with the exception of the old
Sun2/160 VME backplane which only bussed P2 for like two or three
slots.
