[rescue] PowerMac RAM/VRAM?

[Zach Malone]

I found a couple sticks of 72 pinn simms from some macintosh in the past
(presumably a PowerMac) that I upgraded, and removed the old SIMMs.  When I
tried them in my Cycle SS-5 board, it would boot, but crash after displaying
the total memory.  Removed the two, it works fine, your milage may vary,
