Re: HP Proliant DL360 G3 memory issue
Hello Rob,
I have tried a kernel rebuild with this option (a snipit of my config is
below):
CONFIG_MPENTIUM4=y
CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y
CONFIG_MTRR=y
CONFIG_SMP=y
CONFIG_MTRR=y
CONFIG_SMP=y
But, I am still getting the same results.
-----------------
#~: uname -a
Linux blah 2.4.18 #3 SMP Thu Jun 2 10:08:29 CDT 2005 i686 unknown
#~: free
total used free shared buffers cached

Swap: 501832 0 501832
-----------------
I have also tried passing "MEM=1024M" to the boot parameters, but this
seems to do nothing as well.
-----------------
image=/boot/bzImage
label=Linux
read-only
append="MEM=1024M"
-----------------
Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
