To see your memory layout check /proc/mtrr. Below is what I have for my 4GB amd64 Tyan 2865 mobo w. 64-bit kernel: It took quite a bit of playing with the Tyan bios to get it to set up the address maps correctly. There were three unhelpfully labeled entries that interacted. reset to factory "optimized" settings. select mtrr discontinuous (was contigious) select mtrr hardware mapping (was disabled) select iommu 128k (was disabled) (others left at factory default) # cat /proc/mtrr reg00: base=0x00000000 ( 0MB), size=2048MB: write-back, count=1 reg01: base=0x80000000 (2048MB), size=1024MB: write-back, count=1 reg02: base=0xc0000000 (3072MB), size= 256MB: write-back, count=1 reg03: base=0xcff00000 (3327MB), size= 1MB: uncachable, count=1 reg04: base=0x100000000 (4096MB), size= 512MB: write-back, count=1 reg05: base=0x120000000 (4608MB), size= 256MB: write-back, count=1 reg06: base=0xd8000000 (3456MB), size= 128MB: write-combining, count=2 Maybe your board ha a bunch of settings you need to ferret out too? -wolfgang -- Wolfgang S.
