Early spring cleaning my docs disk, I came across the "hyperSPARC Module
Installation Guide". Most of it just tell me how to take machines apart
and put them back together but one of the appendices mentions problems with
modules slower than 90Mhz and gives a few PROM commands to work round this
before installing the patch.
The patch is to ross625_va_int_asm() for machines running SunOS 4.1.4.
The PROM commands are :
ok reset
ok ross625
ok ibuf-off
ok 1 switch-cpu
ok ibuff-off
ok 0 switch-cpu
