Re: Only 3.6gb of 64gb RAM recognized by 64bit squeeze



Might also help to make sure your bios is recognizing all of the memory.  If not  you might need to check the limitations of the MB or see if there is a bios update that will make the system see all the memory.

Ensure that all of the RAM modules are identical and have been approved/
tested by your motherboard's manufacturer.

You can also try to load a LiveCD of your choice (e.g., SystemRescueCD)
and check from there, just to discard/confirm this is something Debian-
specific.
