I have a compaq Armada 1598DT which I'm running FreeBSD 2.2.6 on. The machine has been loaded with 98M of memory. Unfortunately,the kernel will not recognise the full extent of the memory on this PC. Evidence for this is the high swap rate, top reports a low memory inactive level, the info from the boot record (obtained from dmesg) is as follows:- real memory = 16777216 (16384K bytes) avail memory = 14680064 (14336K bytes) I have compiled the kernel with the line "options MAXMEM=(98*1024)" included with no success. Can anyone offer some suggestions to overcome this problem Thanks in advance God Bless David de Jong -- ______________________________________________________________________ |David de Jong | | |ENERGEX | /\|\ | |dd026@energex.com.au | / \<---Centre of Universe. | |Phone +61 +7 34075524(work)| \/ \_/ "Great Spirits Have Always | | +61 +7 38781363(home)| v encountered violence from meagre| |Time GMT+10HRS | minds" Albert Einstein | --------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
