SOS ! Free2.0R and 124Mb RAM - HOW ??? SOS ! Date: 2 Feb 1995 21:15:02 GMT Organization: Internet Online Services Lines: 44 Message-ID: <3gri0m$c5a@ankh.iia.org> NNTP-Posting-Host: thanatos.ios.com X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Hi folx , the problem - Gateway 2000 P90 PCI Bustec 946 SCSI or/and MICRON in the same config - ====== WITH 128MB of RAM ====== Free2.0R _doesn't see the memory above 64M .... Both systems see the memory ( check it after the start), BIOS - Phoenix 4.04 or AMI ( I don't remember the version ). Heeee-e-e-e-lp me :) Jordan , where are you ? :)) The primitive kernel hack didn't help much - the FreeBSD tests the all 128Mb after start ( I subsitute the the BIOS call the get the memory amount to some fake routine) , but it fails later .... I've recompiled the kernel with -DLARGEMEM And the last question is - anyone has _working PC with 128 of RAM under Free 2.0R ??? ========= All other things work GREAT and amazingly fast :) The only problem is with that above 64M RAM ( and I really need it ). ========= -- ==== SY RK
