The memory map I'm looking at shows me that the second 256 MB of memory is at physical address 0x80000000. I suspect that due to the 2G/2G split in the kernel, I can't use memory this high without moving to the 64-bit kernel. Would someone confirm this for me? -- Steve Madsen Tadpole Computer, Inc. http://www.tadpole.com
