 Hi Oliver,
 
 Please try with src/sys/vm/vm_page.c revision 1.128, which impliments
 the following change:
 
 | alc         1999/03/18 21:21:04 PST
 | 
 |   Modified files:
 |     sys/vm               vm_page.c 
 |   Log:
 |   Construct the free queue(s) in descending order (by physical
 |   address) so that the first 16MB of physical memory is allocated
 |   last rather than first.  On large-memory machines, this avoids
 |   the exhaustion of low physical memory before isa_dmainit has run.
 |   
 |   Revision  Changes    Path
 |   1.128     +8 -2      src/sys/vm/vm_page.c
 
 Feedback woiuld be greatly appreciated.
 
 Ciao,
 Sheldon.
