I hate that in LinuxBIOS (CAR and RAM stage) I can not access the range above 4G, esp the last 4G in 1T Range.
I could use fs base to access that, but that is quite slow...

We should make a feature freeze and only let changes in that fix something until we _verified_ that all (K8) mainboards are working and on the same level (ie. equal cmos layouts, dual core, car enabled, etc pp.) One step at a time. We just recovered. Besides that, 64bit is a must, no doubt. Stefan -- LinuxBIOS mailing list LinuxBIOS@openbios.org http://www.openbios.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
