POWER6 not seeing memory above 2Gb



Hello all, I'm new to the list and just installed jessie on my IBM
8203-E4A box. It's a dual core 4.2Ghz with 16Gb of memory.

But anyhow like the subject says the kernel is only reporting 2Gb of
available memory. I tried appending "mem=16G" as a boot argument but
no change.

Here is the output from dmesg with kernel 3.16.0

[    0.000000] physicalMemorySize            = 0x80000000
[    0.000000] Node 0 Memory: 0x0-0x80000000

Any ideas? Thanks.
