Test second.b for helping to fix initrd problems

[Ben Collins]

I haven't been able to nail down this initrd problem with SILO. No one
else has had time to dig into it either.

I can't reproduce it. Moving dimms around in my machines doesn't cause a
problem.

I've made a second.b that is a little more verbose with the sparc64 memory
finder routine. I'd appreciate it if anyone that is having problems with
initrd could test this so I can see the output. If you happen to be able
to move your dimms around in a way that allows SILO to work, then please
send me the output of both ways so I can compare notes.

I need to get this bug fixed. Quite a few dists are hurting because of it.

Well, I had one tester, but I think it was enough to nail down this
problem. Everyone having problems, could you just give this a try?
