I haven't seen an alpha with more than 2G of ram that we booted on. Is it possible that isp has never been tested with >4G ram? Secondly.. what release is this on? I'm wondering if the horrific busdma bugs in 5.3-RELEASE might be a problem if the machine does have >4G ram. Third, is this a machine ram size problem or a disk volume size problem?
