AMD64-generic doesn't see all 4GB RAM?
I have a dual core Opteron 265 running in a Tyan K8WE (S2877) motherboard with
4 x 1GB RAM DDR modules. The BIOS displays the RAM as 4094 MB, but using
a fresh install of testing/unstable from the AMD64 etch net-installer, I can still only
see 3.2 GB out of the 4GB RAM...
I am using the amd64-generic kernel that net-install gave me.
Do I need to be using a different kernel to get the full 4GB RAM?
