No. This is due to the 3.5-4.0GB PA address range that the PeeCee architecture reserves for the PCI config space, AGP GART, memory mapped I/O, etc... Many Opteron BIOS's don't bother to hoist the "covered" memory above 4GB. Please see the freebsd-amd64 archives -- this has been discussed many times. -- -- David ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
