I don't understand these values.  I would have expected
msr 00000268=1e1e1e1e1e1e1e1e (0xc0000-c7fff) (only if CAR size = 64K)
msr 00000269=1e1e1e1e1e1e1e1e (0xc8000-cffff)

Why are we setting anything in the 0-0x80000 range ( msr 0x250) or the
0x80000-0x9ffff range (msr 0x258)?
Same question for 0xe0000-0xfffff (0x26d-26f).

Thanks,
Myles
