To the original poster - does a PAE kernel actually boot on your 16 gig machines ? My problem was that I had tested PAE of 4 gig machines (to avoid the "bit over 3" problem) but when it came down to 16 gig on the Xeons then it wouldnt actually boot :-( -pete. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
