I'm wondering if there's any way in FreeBSD (4.x on i386) to tell what
the RAM configuration in the system is? ie. Can it show me if I have
four 256MB modules versus two 512MB's? Obviously it would be possible
to just open up the computer and see for my self, I'm hoping I can
save myself a trip

Sure. Install the dmidecode port (from /usr/ports/sysutils/
dmidecode), and run:
dmidecode -t memory
Of course, this relies on the BIOS reporting the memory properly. In
my case, on an Asus P5B motherboard, it reports the RAM at 533 MHz
(DDR2-533), even though it's set in the BIOS to run
Awesome, that works like a charm!
Thanks,
