[SunRescue] Re: FS SPARCenter 2000E System Board

[Mike]

yes that is correct ... though on my SC2000 , i have 4 sc2000 board with
SM81-2's and 6 SC2000e boards used only for RAM and NVSIMMS and it works
fine ... problem comes in when you put CPU's on the other boards the system
reconizes that its a 2000e board and the system wont boot...
