Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello everyone, I have a pII266 with tyan S1832DL motherboard, no scsi, only ide machine with mostly standard settings. I put it together myself, so there shouldn't be any surprises such as incompatibilities, yet... When I installed freebsd 2.2.7-release directly from a cd, I noticed that it only detects and uses 64 megs of memory, though I have one 128Mb dimm.. I have researched the problem, but the only solution I found was for linux, to put mem=128M in lilo file so kernel uses all memory. What is the alternative solution for freebsd? Sorry if the question was answered already. My other question is more of a comment, I don't know if anything can be done about it, the installer does not find a lot of ports, Qt-1.31, playmidi, some pgp version and a lot of others, and that is the CD from walnut creek, I was very surprised... Of course after the install, KDE doesn't work and some other binaries for X can not be found. Is it something I did wrong in the installer or is it a known problem? Thanks a lot for your help, Andriss ________________________________________ Andriss@ArGate.com http://ArGate.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
