Hi All,
I have discovered that while running 2.4.6pre5, the kernel does not see all
available RAM - I have 1GB and the kernel only sees ~899MB. The stock
Redhat 7.1 kernel sees the full 1024MB. Adding mem=1024M on boot does not
help either.
I'm running an IBM x340, dual 1GHz cpu.
Have I missed something?
Stuart

The 1GB memory option in the kernel configuration is really the 896MB
memory option. So for more than 896MB, you need to select the 4GB
memory option, which really is 4GB.
