Well I am sad to say that I had only a couple of responses and more for a 
posted summary.  I had the latest patch and all jumpers are in the correct 
position as suggested below by Colin.  However that was one of the few real 
suggestion that I received!  If someone else has an idea, PLEASE let me 
know...TIA  Mike


Hi Mike;

One think you might want to look into is the firmware revision.
There are two PCI related bugs on older firmwares, one of which
cryptically says...

"Ultra-60/80 OBP slot-names property for pci devices is wrong."

The patch for firmware is 106455-11.


The other thing is to make sure that the CPU speed jumper is
set properly. J3001 should be across pins 1-2 for the 300 and 360MHz
CPUs (divide-by-three mode), and pins 2-3 for the 450MHz processors.

Hope this helps.

Colin Bigam
