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
