Hi,
Running Centos 5 (32bit)... running a server with 4gb of RAM and it's
shows up as:
[root@ubercore1 ~]# free
total used free shared buffers cached

I know 4gb is the limit for a 32bit OS but i thought it would be able
to use all of it? Is there another kernel i was supposed to install?
The thing is, and I'm still trying to find a solution for one of our
servers, the the memory addresses from 4Gb down are used for PCI, VGA,
onboard stuff, and even though the memory isn't used, the addresses
are, and so they are not passed to the OS.
Can you send some info on the motherboard you have?
It's a Dell Poweredge 1950 straight out of the box...
