If i is a 40Mhz module without cache, you should exect that it will
_not_ work. However, I heard reports that it might work for certain
combinations of HW revisions. That was under Linux. Do not expect it.

If the 40Mhz modules have cache (often called 41), it should work.

No, I would not combine a 60Mhz and a 40Mhz CPU. I think all OS assume
that the CPUs are of the same speed. If you are unlucky the resulting
system will run slower that a single 60Mhz.
