I have tried tunning a kernel to NKPT = 64, and NKTP = 128, but no luck. Also tried options DISABLE_PSE in kernel. Have you guys found a better solution? -thanks, CRGarcia --_=_=_=IMA.BOUNDARY.HTML_74351344=_=_=_ Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit <HTML> <FONT FACE="MS Shell Dlg" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="1" POINTSIZE="8" DEFAULT="SIZE"><BR> I couldn't find a fix to the problem few months ago<BR> and just went with 2GB for now... :-(<BR> <BR> -Simon<BR> <BR> --Original Message Text---<BR> <B>From:</B> crg<BR> <B>Date:</B> Thu, 18 Oct 2001 22:05:32 -0500<BR> <BR> <FONT FACE="Arial"><FONT SIZE="2" POINTSIZE="10">FreeBSD:<FONT FACE="MS Shell Dlg" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="1" POINTSIZE="8" DEFAULT="SIZE"><BR> <BR> <FONT FACE="Arial"><FONT SIZE="2" POINTSIZE="10">I have the same problem with running 4GB of RAM on FreeBSD 4.4<FONT FACE="MS Shell Dlg" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="1" POINTSIZE="8" DEFAULT="SIZE"><BR> <FONT FACE="Arial"><FONT SIZE="2" POINTSIZE="10">Hardware is a DELL Poweredge 2550, dual 1.2GHZ, RAID 0 with 5 SCSI disks, and 4 - 1GB memory<FONT FACE="MS Shell Dlg" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="1" POINTSIZE="8" DEFAULT="SIZE"><BR> <FONT FACE="Arial"><FONT SIZE="2" POINTSIZE="10">sticks.<FONT FACE="MS Shell Dlg" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="1" POINTSIZE="8" DEFAULT="SIZE"><BR> <BR> <FONT FACE="Arial"><FONT SIZE="2" POINTSIZE="10">2GB works well, but 4GB gets the panic: swap_pager_swap_init: swap_zone=NULL.<FONT FACE="MS Shell Dlg" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="1" POINTSIZE="8" DEFAULT="SIZE"><BR> <BR> <FONT FACE="Arial"><FONT SIZE="2" POINTSIZE="10">I have tried tunning a kernel to NKPT = 64, and NKTP = 128, but no luck.<FONT FACE="MS Shell Dlg" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="1" POINTSIZE="8" DEFAULT="SIZE"><BR> <FONT FACE="Arial"><FONT SIZE="2" POINTSIZE="10">Also tried options DISABLE_PSE in kernel.<FONT FACE="MS Shell Dlg" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="1" POINTSIZE="8" DEFAULT="SIZE"><BR> <BR> <FONT FACE="Arial"><FONT SIZE="2" POINTSIZE="10">Have you guys found a better solution?<FONT FACE="MS Shell Dlg" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="1" POINTSIZE="8" DEFAULT="SIZE"><BR> <BR> <FONT FACE="Arial"><FONT SIZE="2" POINTSIZE="10">-thanks,<FONT FACE="MS Shell Dlg" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="1" POINTSIZE="8" DEFAULT="SIZE"><BR> <FONT FACE="Arial"><FONT SIZE="2" POINTSIZE="10">CRGarcia<FONT FACE="MS Shell Dlg" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="1" POINTSIZE="8" DEFAULT="SIZE"><BR> <BR> <BR> </HTML> --_=_=_=IMA.BOUNDARY.HTML_74351344=_=_=_-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
