You might want to pick up the program called "Dimm Config&Interleave"
however I'm not sure where it is available for download. I can email it to
you if you like. The following is quoted from the ReadMe file:

"About DIMM Configuration & Interleave v1.0

This program displays memory size, bank configuration, and interleave status
for each DIMM slot. This program can be used to detect if DIMMs have been
installed properly to enable interleaving.

This program only runs on Hammerhead-based PCI PowerMacs, such as the 7300,
7500, 7600, 8500, 8600, 9500, and 9600 computers. It doesn't support any
Nubus machine, including the original PowerMac, or PowerMacs which use a
memory controller other than a Hammerhead-based, such as the 4400, 6400 or
7200.

The program returns one of three possible results. On Macs which don't
support the Name Registry, such as Non-PCI Mac, it will generate a Finder
error message, such as -192 or "NameRegistryLib" could not be found. On
unsupported PCI Macs, such as 6400s, the application will report that it is
not supported. Otherwise, on the supported PowerMacs, it will generate a
list that looks like this:

A1/B1 (row 0) -> w/x     interleaved
A1/B1 (row 1) -> y/z     interleaved
...
An/Bn (row 0) -> r/s     interleaved
An/Bn (row 1) -> t/u........----

An/Bn represents a pair of slots. On the 8 slot Macs (7500, 8500, etc.)
there are four pairs A1/B1 thru A4/B4. On the 9500/9600, there are six pairs
of slots (A1/B1 thru A6/B6)."
