me:
	I just made and upgrade to 32MB (only for few days :-():
	I am asked to enter into the bios setup.
	When booting I get:
-current>>>>	FreeBSD 2.2-961004-SNAP #1: Wed Oct  9 22:10:58 MET DST 1996
		charnier@xp11.frmug.org:/usr/src/sys/compile/LENA.wd1

	avail memory = 30429184 (29716K bytes)
   I get a panic after the npx probe.

I'm running -current (since cvs-cur.0000 :-))

Doug White:
>What panic?

panic: pmap_release: freeing held page table page. No dump, only the
``reboot in 15 seconds'' message. The same kernel with MAXMEM=32768
added runs fine. I found this message in pmap.c v1.123, line 903.
This is on a 486dx50 ISA/VLB 2 Ide disks 2 SCSI disks (AHA1542CF) with
DIAGNOSTIC enabled.

I also had:
fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address 0x59830c5
fault code    supervisor read, page not present
ip  0x8:0xf0198a6a
sp  0x10:0xefbffdd60
frame pointer 0x10: 0xefbffddd0
current process  5 (sh)
kernel type 12 trap, code = 0 
stopped at _usf_bmaparray+0xbe  movl 0x24(%edx), %eax

>It could be bad memory.

It would be nice, but unfortunately, I came back home with 16x(4MB) and
I tried a lot. Maybe I am a very unlucky guy!
