In response to Yuri <yuri@rawbw.com>: > I know that 32-bot Linux can see something like 3.6GB. > Is this possible on FreeBSD? > > I see this message in system log: > real memory = 6442450944 (6144 MB) > avail memory = 3123482624 (2978 MB) Most systems usually see about 3.5G ... don't know why FreeBSD would see less than that. amd64 is the way to go. If you _must_ stick with i386, you can try PAE in your kernel, but I don't know if that's even supported any more. -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com http://people.collaborativefusion.com/~wmoran/
