2 GB Memory Upgrade Kit
Installation Guide
This flier provides installation instructions for the Octane 2 GB Memory Upgrade Kit.
Caution: For this installation, you must have an Octane R12000 class workstation that
was shipped from the factory with a 270 MHz or faster CPU. If you upgraded to a
270 MHz CPU, you cannot use the 1 GB DIMMs included with this upgrade kit.
In addition, your workstation
must be running version 6.5.6 or later of the IRIX operating
system. If you are sure your workstation meets these requirements, begin the installation.
If you are not sure your workstation meets these requirements, begin by checking your
system module and operating system, as described on page 4.
Note:
If you are running IRIX 6.5.6 and you want to run more than 6 GB of memory, you
must install the required software patch, as described on page 8. This patch is not
necessary starting with IRIX 6.5.7.
