Hi people,
I have here 2 "think center" machines, each with 4GB RAM each and I'm
using CentOS 5 with them.
BIOS reports correctly that the machine has 4GB RAM, however Linux
begs to differ:
# free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 3098212 235696 2862516 0 16608 164824
-/+ buffers/cache: 54264 3043948
Swap: 4096564 0 4096564
So BIOS says "4", Linux says "3".
What kernel parameters can I use to "convince" Linux that I really
have 4GB RAM? I don't think I need the HUGEMEM kernel since it only
deals with >4 GB RAM and RedHat has "united" all the bigmem stuff into
1 kernel.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Hetz
