I guess the answer is `256 MiB' for the 2xx variants ;-) Actually, there's some limitations on the MMU, and on our kernel design which make 24mb a hard and fast limit. I think the 2xx variants were still limited to this. (though the Sun FEH implies it might have actually been possible to get 32MB installed in a 3/260). -- Sam
