Hey,
Hope someone can give me some help here...
I have a Dell 1850 with 4 X 1 GB memory sticks that the linux kernel is only recognizing 256 MB...well actually 249 it's reporting:
[root@asvhyp1 proc]# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 249 98 150 0 8 64
-/+ buffers/cache: 24 224
Swap: 2047 0 2047
I originally thought it was a Xen / Kernel issue; however, booting the system to a non zen kernel reports the same issue. (dmesg is reporting 256 MB low mem, and no high)
It seems like I saw something years ago when getting 32-bit systems to see 4 GB was more magic than science, but I'm stumped.
The Dell BIOS is showing the 4 GB.
If you don't have any insight, maybe some tips on helpful commands would be useful.
Thanks,
--ron
