This is from my SS2 with standard processor, 64 megs. etc...

mainbus0 (root): SUNW,Sun 4/75
cpu0 at mainbus0: cache chip bug; trap page uncached: CY7C601 @ 40 MHz, TMS390C6
02A FPU
cpu0: 64K byte write-through, 32 bytes/line, hw flush: cache enabled

It's normal. The box is as solid as a rock.

This particular box is the "Big Brother" server for my network. It hits
2.8-4.0 load average when doing CGI stuff to update the Big Brother pages.

It's running:

NetBSD seahag 1.4.1 NetBSD 1.4.1 (SEAHAG) #1: Sat Mar  4 00:05:04 MST 2000
rmk@seahag:/usr/src/sys/arch/sparc/compile/SEAHAG sparc

And it just keeps grinding along...
