1 I recently got my home server back up and running after the power
2 supply went out. I put some more memory in it, and it shows up fine
3 as 1048576 KB (1 gigabyte). Gentoo, however, is only showing it as
4 904336 KB (883.14 MB) . I'm curious as to why it's not detecting
5 140.86 MB. Originally the server had a 512mb stick of generic PC2700
6 memory; I put 2 sticks of 256 MB (Mushkin, PC3200). The FSB is set to
7 133 mhz and cpu/mem ratio is set 1:1 (Athlon XP 2400+ for the
8 processor). It's running in a dual channel memory config.
