[SunRescue] Re: Rescue digest, Vol 1 #799 - 11 msgs

hmmm, I tried putting a k6-3 400 in my sunpci once - it wouldn't even 
consider booting...  because of the low core voltage they use, I 
suspect.  There are silk screenings on the back of the board for jumper 
settings for the voltage, but as far as I could tell, the jumper 
referred to does not exist!  Correct me if I'm wrong, but out of the box 
they run the 400 at 66x6 right?  So to get 500 you had to bump up to 
83x6?  No stability problems? I figured that part of the reason they 
could get away with 2.1v was the low bus speed...
