Unfortunately I cannot c= heck > my FreeBSD documentation at the moment because the hardware is currentl= y > disassembled. Hmm, a Pentium 133? It=B4s not by accident a motherboard with Intel TX chipset? There you might have this information that more than 64MB RAM is a bad idea, because the TX chipset can only cache 64MB. Everything above is uncached and therefore very slow. But this is not OS related at all.
