It seems to be only the "real memory" value, and not the "avail memory", that's out of touch with reality. Wild guess dept: Your new 2 GiB has gotten mapped as [30,32) GiB rather than as [2,4) GiB, and "real memory" is reporting the first unpopulated address above the highest installed range. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
