------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-06 12:00 ------- On Wed, Mar 05, 2003 at 08:00:04PM -0500, paul wrote: Yes, I know this. But this comment does not adress the problem, which was that: 1) TWO kernel's were installed automatically: 'kernel' and 'kernel-enterprise'. WHY was the enterprise kernel installed without my asking for it. This is an ordinary laptop with ONE processor and 1024 MB memory. 2) There still seems to be some problem with 'kernel' reporting memory: During install (I think somewhere under 'advanced' when configuring grub) it was stated that 896 MB was available. And this is confirmed by 'free -m' which shows: total 883, used 186, free 696. Only 'kernel-enterprise' gives "correct" indications: 127 HIGHMEM and 896 LOWMEM. If the normal kernel uses all availabel memory why is it not reported. I don't care HOW it is used (as long as it IS used, that is).. The RedHat 8.x (beta) kernels report the memory correctly. This might result in lots of complaints from unsuspecting users.

When booting with kernel only 896 MB memory is found. Trying to boot with 'mem=1024' in grub does not succeed. The boot stops with error. kernel-enterprise works and shows 127 MB HIGHMEM and 896 MB LOWMEM. Why is not kernel-enterprise installed as default. Or why not just make one kernel?
