I was running FreeBSD 2.0.5 on a pentium 120 with 32mb of edo (4 pieces of 8mb). There were problems with the Adaptec device driver and so I put in a 2.1.0 kernel which solved the problem. I've now bought a pentium 200 pro with 82mb of ram (2 x 32mb in bank0 and 2 x 8mb in bank 1) which I'm using with the original disks. The machine runs fine, but the OS only recognises 64 mb of ram! ;( I've got 2.1.5 on CD and am tempted to start again with this release. If I do this will I get the whole 82mb of ram available? Thanks in advance, Joe. -- Josef Karthauser (jlk@pavilion.net) Technical Manager [Tel: +44 1273 607072 Fax: +44 1273 607073] Pavilion Internet plc. ._ .. _. _ ._.. .. .._. . __. ._. ._ _. _..
