Hi,
First post, so please forgive if this is in the wrong board.
I've installed Zod on a Dell 2950 with 8 GB Ram. The 2.6.18 kernel only
reports 4GB, so I decided to do an "yum upgrade" ... excpet now with the
2.6.19 kernel I only have 3.2 GB
Here's the top output:
Mem: 3368804k total, 743888k used, 2624916k free, 43428k buffers
Swap: 2031608k total, 0k used, 2031608k free, 429312k cached
Here's the fun part...when I boot with Xen - Ram is reported correctly?
Any help would be appreciated!
( I did try setting kernel parameter mem=8192M ... does not work)
Thankx

You probably need to be running the PAE version of the kernel since you
have memory in excess of 4 GB. The link is below. The normal kernel only
does 4 GB maximum.
