Hello,

Many warm thanks to all who replied. Unfortunetly there is not direct
way to get this information. I was, however, successful with a rather
unorthodox method. I used more on /dev/mem and was able to grab the Firmware
Power-Up Display:

# more /dev/mem
...
starting console on CPU 0
sizing memory
  0 512 MB SYNC <---- This is what I was looking for.
starting console on CPU 1
probing IOD1 hose 1
  bus 0 slot 1 - NCR 53C810
  bus 0 slot 2 - NCR 53C810
probing IOD0 hose 0
...

Many thanks,
Bill Antoniadis
