3. How much memory can be installed in 164LX machines?
   I have two 164LX machines, one with 512MB (Debian etch)
   and the other with 384MB (the Fedora-8 based), and I'd
   like to have more memory capacity if possible.

3. I think the max was 1GB total, 256MB per DIMM.
    

Thanks Jay.

According to a product brief from Alpha Processor Inc. of
the motherboard (attached to this mail), the maximum
is 1GB, but it's the only one that says so.
(www.alphalinux.org/firmware/api/LX/164LX.PDF)
  

We built many systems using this board "back in the day"
The maximum memory capacity we ( or others) could make work was 1024MB.
Using 4 x 256MB memory modules.

Also, they should be ECC modules, BTW..
