Yeah Doug, before you worry about the ram amount, you might
ought'a be concerned about HDD's running on a 41 mhz pci bus.
Just too far off spec, 7x82/41/82, and I suspect your actual
FSB is 83/41.5 mhz. Even IBM and WD HDD's have trouble sooner or
later at 41 mhz. I believe 30 to 37 mhz is an acceptable range.
The ram mismatch might be due to the SMP kernel, I tried 2.2.13-22
for a while, which had SMP support enabled altho the rpm didn't say
smp. My 128 ram was reported as 96. No other kernel has had it
wrong, including a ready made -7mdk, and a -7mdk I compiled from
source with a sl35d 4.5/126/31.5/(unused agp).
Another thing I've seen a lot of o/c'rs report is that Abit's
sometimes have trouble seeing ram in one dimm slot, but not
another. Try moving the ram around. 'Course why do you use
PC133, specially ECC, at 82 mhz ?
