Hi all,
I've caught up with the "test" posts. So don't reply. Let's hope the
backlog/time being taken to distribute messages is resolved (it would be
a thankless task if I didn't thank those right now working to resolve it
:-)
Regards,
Adam

The Debian 2.2r3 precompiled standard kernel finds 512 MB RAM just fine.

Not that I've heard. Just "cat /proc/meminfo" to see if it has been
detected.

maybe true on older kernels (1.x and 2.0 ?) but not true
on 2.2 or 2.4 at least..you may have to tweak lilo to
tell linux how much ram

No. You can have up to 1 gig of ram before you need to start messing
with the kernel's high memory support, I belie

I don't know but you can find out: run free (or top or cat
/proc/meminfo or some other program that tells you how

No... I think you may have to recompile for ram>=1G, but that's only if

No, it isn't. If you have more than approx. 868MB, then the all above
isn't used without a recompile with "HIGH_MEM"
