[-- Attachment #1 --] Have you tried options MAXMEM="(4096*1024)"? Jason ----- Original Message ----- From: crg To: chris@selkie.org ; kris@obsecurity.org ; simon@optinet.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sent: Thursday, October 18, 2001 11:05 PM Subject: 4 GB of RAM FreeBSD: I have the same problem with running 4GB of RAM on FreeBSD 4.4 Hardware is a DELL Poweredge 2550, dual 1.2GHZ, RAID 0 with 5 SCSI disks, and 4 - 1GB memory sticks. 2GB works well, but 4GB gets the panic: swap_pager_swap_init: swap_zone=NULL. I have tried tunning a kernel to NKPT = 64, and NKTP = 128, but no luck. Also tried options DISABLE_PSE in kernel. Have you guys found a better solution? -thanks, CRGarcia [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.3315.2870" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Have you tried </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>options MAXMEM="(4096*1024)"?</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Jason</FONT></DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE style="BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: black"><B>From:</B> <A href="mailto:hackthis@texas.net" title=hackthis@texas.net>crg</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>To:</B> <A href="mailto:chris@selkie.org" title=chris@selkie.org>chris@selkie.org</A> ; <A href="mailto:kris@obsecurity.org" title=kris@obsecurity.org>kris@obsecurity.org</A> ; <A href="mailto:simon@optinet.com" title=simon@optinet.com>simon@optinet.com</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Cc:</B> <A href="mailto:freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" title=freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG>freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Sent:</B> Thursday, October 18, 2001 11:05 PM</DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> 4 GB of RAM</DIV> <DIV><BR></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>FreeBSD:</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have the same problem with running 4GB of RAM on FreeBSD 4.4</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hardware is a DELL Poweredge 2550, dual 1.2GHZ, RAID 0 with 5 SCSI disks, and 4 - 1GB memory</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>sticks.</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2GB works well, but 4GB gets the panic: swap_pager_swap_init: swap_zone=NULL.</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have tried tunning a kernel to NKPT = 64, and NKTP = 128, but no luck.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also tried options DISABLE_PSE in kernel.</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Have you guys found a better solution?</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>-thanks,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>CRGarcia</FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
