Hello,
I am running kernel 2.6.28 on a computer with 8GB RAM. The BIOS
detects all 8GB, yet
jk@as12:~$ free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 3622504 799696 2822808 0 90936 369604
-/+ buffers/cache: 339156 3283348
Swap: 6867776 0 6867776
I compiled the kernel with the CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G=y and
CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT=y options.
I have attached the kernel config, dmesg output and /proc/cpuinfo.
How can I use all the memory on this computer?
Thank you in advance for any help,
JamesK
