I have two machines (Pentium II 400, Intel BX mobo) with 512M RAM in each
of them.  I recompiled both kernels with 'MAXMEM=(512*2014)'.  I have also
removed the BOUNCE_BUFFERS option from the kernel config since it seems
this has caused problems for some.

The situation is this: both machines boot normally, operate normally, and
appear to be stable when under a normally operating load.  However,
according to /var/run/dmesg.boot, only 384M are detected by the system.
In both cases the BIOS accurately detects two 256M DIMMS.  Somewhere, 128M
has been lots.

Ideas?


Thanks,
-Mark.
