Default moving nvram from u10 mobo to u5 mobo


We have a U10 system with 2 bad memory slots. So what we've done is
taken the "crippled" U10 mobo and replaced it with a spare U5 mobo we
had.

When the U10 NVRAM is inserted into the U5 mobo and booted, the
system reports "The IDPROM contents are invalid". The U10 NVRAM chip
boots fine on the "crippled" u10 mobo.

Is there anything on the U5 mobo that has to be frobbed to make it
recognize the U10 NVRAM as valid?
