In a G5, the memory must be installed in size pairs from the inside out.


A four slot G4 will have memory installed 2-1 1-2, an 8 slot G5 will have memory installed 4-3-2-1 1-2-3-4.


Of course, the slots are arranged in banks, vertically, above and below center of the board, with the innermost slot of each bank being #1.
