I could be wrong.  I was reading some pages on 'sunhelp' that indicated
the module I had was a 0-cache module.

Anyway, I just powered up the machine with my 100Mhz module and my
150Mhz module.  Here's what I get:

So, it looks like the 100Mhz has a 256K cache and the 150 has a 512K cache.

Guess I can't use these two together with NetBSD yet.
