Just want to confirm that FreeBSD 5.3/5.4 can access and use more

the i386 version of FreeBSD.


I don't know about the particular motherboard, but you need to enable PAE in your kernel. Not all drivers work with PAE, so you'll need to do some research to check your hardware compatibility.

ok, thanks

That will get me going. I don't have the 4gb now but am thinking about the years upgrades
