It is my understanding that the DN4000 memory connectors will accept
only 4MB or 8MB cards. The connectors on the 2MB cards are different --
they have fewers pins on the socket. You can list your hardware
configuration with "/com/netstat -config". The configuration on a
DN3xxx/4xxx is set by the "EX CONFIG" command which you run when the
machine has been shutdown (ie. it is a memonic debugger command).
You can check what your *real* memory configuration is by shutting
down the node and running the memory diagnostic, which automatically
checks the memory size. To do this, shutdown the node, run the 
command "EX DEX" to start the diagnostic executive program, and then
type "RUN MEM" to start the memory diagnostics. Some versions of DEX
will demand a password, in which case you should give it "service".
