Subject:   3.1-RELEASE not seeing all the RAM

 I have a 3.1-RELEASE box running, and it keeps
running out of memory. The odd thing is 'dmesg'
shows the machine having 16M of RAM, while
BIOS shows 128M... The system is a PPro 200mHz
running a GENERIC kernel. 'dmesg' output below.
Are there any known issues as to why the kernel
would not see all the RAM?
