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
