Yes, they need to be installed in sets of 8 for 4 MB (1Mx4 chips).

Note: all chips must be the same type, either 256Kx4 (e.g. 514256) or 1Mx4 (51440x) and either fast page (..00) or static column (..02). They're organized this way:
4 4
3 3
2 2
1 1
4 4
3 3
2 2
1 1
4 4
3 3
2 2
1 1
4 4
3 3
2 2
1 1
so first you fill the '1' sockets, after that the '2' sockets and so on.
