Hi,

I put a fresh install of 6.1-RELEASE on a dell poweredge 1950 server.
It's configured with 4 gigs of ram.

However when I boot i get the following right before DMESG

786432k above 4GB ignored

Which is strange, but then dmesg shows this

real memory  = 3489300480 (3327 MB)
avail memory = 3414659072 (3256 MB)

Soo I'm at a bit of a loss.

Jeff.
