Hi!

	If I want to modify the associativity of a specific bank, how do 
you suggest to modify its associativity and to select the specific bank ? 
I'm not realizing previous suggestions ...  Could you give me any hints? 
Should I create a  new cache object with the  associativity changed and 
then instantiate it?
	Your help will be greatly appreciated!

	Thanks,
