All the comments about enabling 4G highmem are correct - the kernel can't |
| 5 |
address a full gig without it. However, enabling this slightly slows |
| 6 |
down your memory, and some people choose to keep it off for speed unless |
| 7 |
they're using the full gig. Another option, better imho, is to use a |
| 8 |
kernel with the 1g_lowmem patch (originally from -ck patchset) or to |
| 9 |
patch it in yourself, which enables exactly 1 gig of memory at full |
| 10 |
speed. |

The patch for kernel 2.6.12 is available here: |

If you need it for a different kernel version, start here: |
