The instructions fro my XLR8 card are to remove the L2 card. I did so and my system is very stable. I remember reading accounts of upgrades to PCP units which crashed until the L2 card was removed. Also the G3 chips have cache on board so a separate card is redundant possibly explaining the instability.
