If you have a bigsur with >=4GB of memory, you can use kernel option mem=4g to ignore the high memory for now. Thanks to the work of BJ Nima, the next qlogic driver will be able to deal with >=4GB memory machines even if the controller operates in 32-bit mode (at the expense of performance). --david
