i having some strange vm behavour with -ac17 that didn't happen with -ac14
(i haven't tried 15 or 16). it starts swapping even when i have hundreds of
megs of free ram. another strange thing is that the first time i tried to
boot ac17, it machine checked in the palcode. i hit reset and it booted
correctly.

vmstat:
   procs                      memory    swap          io     system         cpu
