Hello

The problems is not Dell PowerEdge specific. My TYAN Tiger-i7320-S5350
(standard dual xeon server from www.ipc2u.com) also reports only 3.5GB 
after booting the Sarge 2.6 kernel :-( The BIOS reports full 4GB.
So if it does not hurt anybody I suggest turning on 64GB support.

bye,

-christian-
