ram a/b/c/d siz0-2 These control bits define the size of their
corresponding block of DRAM. Table 3-13 shows the block configuration
assumed by the Falcon pair for each value of ram siz0-ram siz2.
Note It is important that all of the ram a/b/c/d siz0-2 bits be set to
accurately match the actual size of their corresponding blocks.
This includes clearing them to %000 if their corresponding
blocks are not present. Failure to do so will cause problems with
addressing and with scrub error logging.
