This would mean that you have 4x 64MB in bank 0.  The modules
should have the part number 501-2480.  The rest of the banks would
be filled with 501-3136, these are 128MB modules.

No, you can only test four modules, because the U60 must have each
bank either empty or filled with identical modules.  Look at page 
10-13 in the service manual, there is a mapping table giving the
DIMM socket numbers for each bank.


Hope this helps -- Volker
