It takes about 2 seconds to get through raminit..... so that would make 
it about 4 seconds.

Anyways, in this situation I think it would really complicate things, 
because the onboard memory is the second socket (0x51) and the IP1000 
has so-dimm first socket (0x50). SO, to get it to work you only want it 
to happen on the second socket....

I just think it is alot of unnecessary work and time when you can just 
set a setting at build time, it is not like you can change out onboard 
memory......
