Hello all,
We have Red Hat ES4 running on an Intel D945Gnt motherboard with Intel(R)
Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz and 4GB of Ram. We have the SMP Kernel installed
but only see 3.3GB. There was a post regarding Intel chipsets having the
issue:

We also have this problem with a RH4 system (EM64T and the smp
kernel) using
4GB memory (P4 650). The BIOS sees 4GB memory, but RH only sees 3.3GB
memory. Apparently, this is an Intel chipset issue and cannot be fixed
using software (apparently). Intel are aware of it, but have not put any
fix out yet. I don't know about AMD processors (the systems we have using
AMD processors only have 2GB), but our Intel system with 4GB has lost 700MB
of memory.
Intel do assure us that the OS can see the whole 4GB of memory, but I don't
think I believe them too much...

Has this been verified on all Intel Motherboards? We have tried the hugemem
kernel, but it still shows 3.3GB. I checked Intel's website for any
information regarding this issue and found nothing. Can anyone shed some
more light on this issue.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Christian
