Hi!
When I say about 4Gb limit it means 4Gb limit when GRUB passing memory information for OS using multiboot specs. I have seen that GRUB doesn't want to detect more than 4Gb of RAM. In that case OS gets only 4Gb using multiboot specs. Of course GRUB doesn't need more than 4Gb and it's OK, but OS

Is this about the partition size or the block size? To reproduce this, how big

Hello from Gregg C Levine
Well now I've started my attempts. I found that I needed to build the
LZO library. Found it, and built and installed version 2.01 of the

Well after SSH here asked me to confirm the authenticity of the SSH

I would be interested in this myself. I do not know the history of GRUB
