Hi.

Our new x345 Server with 1 XEON 2.8GHz CPU (second one will be built in
next week) has 4GB RAM. 
I see the following message while the system is booting:

"131072 of memory aboce 4GB ignored"

Well, i will use all the memory i paid for ;-), so what will do the
trick to use all of the memory on that box? I thought problems with
large amount of memory >=4GB are gone with 5.3-STABLE.

Thanks in advance.
