I am afraid, HP is very rigid with its BIOS. Memory remapping is not
offered by it as also the flag cannot be edited to enable the AMD-V
extensions. Really sad.
I thought of installing an open BIOS like openBIOS or something similar,
but don´t know if those would solve my problems then - if not
I recently installed 4 GB RAM but only see 3 GB.
This is normal behavior for most PC-buckets. It's a BIOS issue, where a part of
the RAM is allocated for something, nor sure what exactly. It even states so
in the manual for some of my systems.
This is not a Solaris issue, as Solaris can

There you have it. The system is currently running a 64-bit kernel.
As for memory, what does

It could be the chipset. Some chipsets only support up to 3 G of RAM even
under 64 bit OS. I found this when I installed 4 G of RAM and could not figure

Hi,
I recently installed 4 GB RAM but only see 3 GB. Maybe this is an
issue of have been loading the 32 bit kernel. I am encountering a
strange problem when I type this command:
uname -a
It shows:
SunOS solar-star 5.11 snv_77 i86pc i386 i86pc
Should not stand here something with i686 then?
Hi Roman,
these values are reported for all x86 compatible machines. Doesn't
matter if it's i386, Intel Dual Core or AMD Athlon64.
If you want better value, use command 'isainfo'.
HTH,

Even a 32 bit kernel can deal with 4GB or more just fine.
