Re: Kernel doesn't recognize complete memory

The 945 chipset used in the Z61 can only address 4GB of physical address
space and your BIOS is using some of this for PCI and other bits of
hardware. That only leaves 3GB for RAM. I believe that this restriction
is mentioned on the IBM website somewhere.
