Compile your own (HIGHMEM enabled) kernel. The kernel you have does not
have that option enabled.

Hi,

I run testing (2.4.18-k7) on a box with 1024 mb ram.
But while booting into Debian I get only 896 mb. How do I fix this?

The "xconsole" prints out some stuff like:
...
Oct 25 17:54:24 w1 kernel: Warning only 896MB will be used.
Oct 25 17:54:24 w1 kernel: Use a HIGHMEM enabled kernel.
...

What shall I do?!

Please cc to this email also :-)

Yours
Emil

You need to compile a kernel with HIGHMEM enabled.

Hello list,

The following is part of my dmesg output. I have 2 512MB ECC registered
ram modules. But only 896MB will be used? What does this mean?
