Hi all, |
| 2 |
|

I finally got it; my Operaton workstation with 2x Opteron248 CPUs and 4GB RAM |
| 4 |
is arrived. However, the BIOS says that I really have 4GB RAM inside, that I |
| 5 |
have, but the Linux is just telling me something about 3GB. `free -mt` as |
| 6 |
well as `kinfocenter` are telling this. Although, I (unfortunately) *had* to |
| 7 |
install windows2003 on a partition, too (for working for my company), and |
| 8 |
there it is also just telling me something about 3 (instead of 4) GB RAM. |

Did I miss something? |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
mem=4096M in boot commandline didn't help there much. |

I'm having a TYAN board, with PhoenixBIOS on it. The handbook is far off being |
| 15 |
a good handbox, so, did I miss something I should configure/reconfigure in |
| 16 |
the BIOS then, so, that the OS will use all RAM? |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
I found something about "Memory hole" and "1024MB". maybe this is my missing |
| 19 |
1GB? But I can't really disable it, although, playing around w/ this value |
| 20 |
didn't change anything (yet)... |

Thanks in advance, |

Christian Parpart. |
