Hello, I have three dell poweredge 1300s here with 128 megs of RAM in them. However, dmesg only outputs 64M of RAM. I saw a previous post from 1999 involving the same topic on a dell. Is this a problem with the BIOS/CMOS on the dells not reporting the correct amount of memory? More importantly, how would I fix this? I see the MAXMEM option in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT but it looks like it is currently set to 128M. Is that the default for the generic kernel or does the generic kernel just pull from the board and leave MAXMEM set to what it finds? I am assuming I could fix this problem by setting MAXMEM to 128 in my kernel config file and compile the new kernel. Is that correct? Thanks for the time and help.
