One of our 11/785 running VMS 4.3 has 16MB of EMC's 4MB boards. Show memory reports 16MB of memory, but SYSGEN (SH/ADAPTER) reports that nexus 1 has an "unknown" device attached. Could it be that SYSGEN doesn't yet know about these 256K boards? Does anyone have a system with 4MB boards which are recognized by SYSGEN? Thanks, John <nunn@nbs-vms.arpa> ------

I called EMC and they claim that this is a bug with VMS not knowing about 256k boards. Jeff
