Hmm... I have 8GB of RAM in the machine, and POST shows 8GB on boot, but the OS sees only 4GB. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of David Miller Sent: Friday, March 23, 2007 12:37 AM To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: Re: Bigmem Kernels in RHEL AS 5 I believe that since RHEL4 the default installed 2.6.9 kernel will handle large amounts of memory just fine. Red Hat puts artificial limits on their kernel but even in WS it is like 16GB. David.
