Nope, on a Triton motherboard, you are free to mix EDO and FPM SIMMs
however you want, as long you pair them up in the same bank. For example,
Bank 0: EDO, EDO Bank 0: FPM, FPM
Bank 1: FPM, FPM Bank 1: EDO, EDO
are both acceptable (remember NetBSD 1.1 booted), but
Bank 0: EDO, FPM
Bank 1: FPM, EDO
won't work. I haven't tried it, but I bet the computer wouldn't even boot
up in this situation.
As far as I can tell, having NetBSD 1.1 and Windoze boot, but not NetBSD
1.1B, is a sign that the problem is related to 1.1B
