Have you tried

Subject: 4 GB of RAM
 
FreeBSD:
 
I have the same problem with running 4GB of RAM on FreeBSD 4.4
Hardware is a DELL Poweredge 2550, dual 1.2GHZ, RAID 0 with 5 SCSI
disks, and 4 - 1GB memory
sticks.
 
2GB works well, but 4GB gets the panic: swap_pager_swap_init:
swap_zone=NULL.
 
I have tried tunning a kernel to NKPT = 64, and NKTP = 128, but no luck.
Also tried options DISABLE_PSE in kernel.
 
Have you guys found a better solution?
 
-thanks,
CRGarcia
