To disable parity for a 66 MHz bus
The command to turn off the 66 MHz bus is similar to that
for the 33 MHz bus.
At the ok> prompt, type:
00 1fe.0180.0004 1d spacew!
This command disables parity on the 66 MHz PCI bus.
To make parity stay off when you turn off power to the

/etc/system
33 MHz bus" on page 72.
To disable parity for an Ultra 450 system
The Ultra 450 has six bridges: three 5-volt, 33 MHz, and
three 3.3-volt, 33 or 66 MHz. This procedure disables parity
checking on all the buses. To disable parity on individual
buses, follow the instructions in "To disable parity for a 33
MHz bus" on page 72 and To disable parity for a 66 MHz
bus on page 73.
1. Power on or halt the system to get to the ok> prompt
before you install the Md4/PCX board.
2. Type these lines to shut off the parity during initial
boot; observe all spaces:
