Subject: Kernel 2.6.17.8 on Quad AMD Opteron 852 with 16x 4GB Modules (64GB RAM)
Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2006 14:49:38 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <44EC4EE2.6060701@xqueue.de> (raw)
Hello,
we upgraded a Server from 32 GB RAM to 64 GB. Now we try to get a Linux
(FC5) with kernel 2.6.17.8 on a Quad Opteron (852; 64bit)-system with
16x 4GB modules to run.
With 32 GB (8x 4GB modules) the system starts without any problems, but
above I get kernelpanics.
The output then gives me several memoryaddresses bevore the panic
appears. The board (a Tyan K8QW,model S4881) should support up to 64GB
Ram. A Memorytest under Linux recognizes the 64GB and continues without
an error.
I tried several BIOS-Settings.
Does the kernel support the new 4GB-Modules by 64GB Ram?
Thanks for every help, I have no more ideas in the moment
Regards
Björn Engelhardt
PS: Sorry for my bad english
