Subject: FC3 - Proliant Servers
Hiya,
Just tried to install FC3 on a Proliant 5000 (quad processor, 1GB memory) and got a cannot install , you do not have enough RAM message.
I tied the memory diagnostic option and it appears to only recognise 16M of memory, but the Compaq diag shows 1G which passes test.
Any ideas? r and I waisting my time. In which case any suggestions as to which distro will run.
Rob
I haven't worked with a Proliant that old for quite a while. Those old EISA systems have a really weird memory addressing model.
At the installer screen, type:
linux text mem=1008M@16M
If that's not it, try:
linux text mem=16M@1008M
Hope this helps,
Thomas
