I had the same thing happen to me on my B&W Rev.A. I bought a 256MB PC-100 SDRAM which came from a PC store. It KP'd OS X.1.5. I then switched to a 256MB PC-133 SDRAM and though it worked it only showed up as half (128MB). Both sticks were one sided. I then went online and found a RAM dealer who served Macs and PCs. Apparently the B&W G3 needs the double sided 256 sticks (but then again the double sided 128 sticks KP'd OS X). All is fine now with the double sided 256 sticks (both PC-100s).
