6 Just as a data point, you do realize that the 450MHz CPU was never
7 actually supported in the Ultra-2? While it may boot, it wasn't made to
8 work together nor was it sold as an upgrade. You may be tripping on some
9 marginal timing issue.

11 If you have 400MHz/2MB CPUs sitting around it may be worth testing with
12 them to isolate that as a cause.
