Is there any way to get the kernel to report the size of physical memory that
was passed to it from PPCBoot?
Thanks,
Jim

I can think of several easy ways, depending on when you want to print
this information:
* in PPCboot: use the "bdinfo" command
* In early kernel startup: add a printk() in arch/ppc/kernel/setup.c
* In the shell, enter "free", or "cat /proc/meminfo", etc.
