You can't get more than about 900 MB of accessible RAM with that kernel. I'm sorry for not being clear, but I think that the stock Debian kernels were 4 GB enabled starting with 2.6.11. So, you would need to be using a kernel from Etch or Sid. Alternatively, you can roll your own. -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://familiasanchez.net/~roberto
