Edith,
At one point the memtester object was capable of running with just a bus
and main memory, but recent changes require that the memtester have a
cache connected to it. You can do this using the same script you have by
just adding a --caches at the end of your command line.

Hi Edith,
This appears to be a bug in the memory tester object. It shouldn't affect
anything other than the memory tester itself. If you're not writing your own
coherence protocol, then it shouldn't matter to you, as there's really no
other reason to run the memory tester.
Thanks for pointing it out, we'll try and get it fixed in the next release.

Hello M5 users,
I cannot figure out whether my installation is bad or whether something
else is going on. I have built both MIPS and ALPHA SE and I have built
several different executables (m5.debug, m5.prof, etc.) and all seem to
have the same problem. I have build M5 on my Mac OS X ( 10.4.9). I also
built on a Linux box (Debian 4.0 (Etch) on an AMD Athlon XP, 2.6.8.1
<http://2.6.8.1> kernel) to try and rule out whether it was a problem with
my Mac setup, but I'm still getting the same results. Following is the
output I get:

Any ideas/help would be greatly appreciated. I'm new to M5 and I really
want to get it to work. FYI, I didn't get any errors during the
compilation and all of the regression tests passed. Also, the se.py
example ("Hello World") ran fine as well.
Thanks in advance.
