8.0-BETA2 not getting my 4Gigs of ram
Hello, I'm fully enjoying installing FreeBSD 8.0-BETA2 amd64. However, it does not seem to be able to use all my ram. Strangely enough, it says the following: [r...@carmen ~]# dmesg |grep memory real memory = 2147483648 (2048 MB) avail memory = 4112240640 (3921 MB) and [r...@carmen ~]# sysctl -a|grep mem [/snip] hw.physmem: 4277510144 hw.usermem: 3954216960 hw.realmem: 4831838208 [/snip] I'm still on a fresh install with a generic kernel. Any ideas as to what might be going on? greetz, Mark signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
