Hi,
I was trying to install on a box with 8TB of RAM and hit the same
issue. I wanted to verify upstream git is fixed but I struggled to get
anaconda to build. I instead built the isys module and wrote a small
test case:
#!/usr/bin/python
import isys;
total_ram = int(isys.total_memory() / 1024)
print isys.total_memory()
print total_ram;
I still see negative numbers with upstream git:
# ./foo.py
-104333312
-101888
With the attached patch I see the right numbers:
# ./foo.py
4190633984
4092416
I only have 4TB enabled right now.
If we assume all large memory boxes are 64bit we might be able to get
away with just changing tm to a long. Thoughts?
Anton
