Took some digging out of your log.. AMD Athlon(tm)64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4800+ stepping 02 I have same CPU, though possibly a bit different board. I didn't have success with 4 GB RAM until couple months ago, when Asus did publish a new (beta) BIOS version that did correctly configure memory hoisting in the system. I don't override the pci= and iommu= options, they should work just fine -- if the BIOS isn't entirely rotten. I have used mem=3000M which lets system to work, but of course wastes a gigabyte of memory.. /Matti Aarnio > Linux version 2.6.19-1.2911.6.5.fc6 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.1.1 > 20070105 (Red Hat 4.1.1-51)) #1 SMP Sun Mar 4 16:05:34 EST 2007 > Command line: ro root=LABEL=/ vga=1 pci=nommconf iommu=soft > BIOS-provided physical RAM map: > BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009fc00 (usable) > BIOS-e820: 000000000009fc00 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved) > BIOS-e820: 00000000000e5000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved) > BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 00000000abfc0000 (usable) > BIOS-e820: 00000000abfc0000 - 00000000abfce000 (ACPI data) > BIOS-e820: 00000000abfce000 - 00000000abff0000 (ACPI NVS) > BIOS-e820: 00000000abff0000 - 00000000ac000000 (reserved) > BIOS-e820: 00000000fec00000 - 00000000fec01000 (reserved) > BIOS-e820: 00000000fee00000 - 00000000fef00000 (reserved) > BIOS-e820: 00000000ff780000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) > Entering add_active_range(0, 0, 159) 0 entries of 3200 used > Entering add_active_range(0, 256, 704448) 1 entries of 3200 used > end_pfn_map = 1048576 > DMI 2.3 present. > ACPI: RSDP (v002 ACPIAM ) @ 0x00000000000fb870 > ACPI: XSDT (v001 A M I OEMXSDT 0x04000619 MSFT 0x00000097) @ > 0x00000000abfc0100 > ACPI: FADT (v003 A M I OEMFACP 0x04000619 MSFT 0x00000097) @ > 0x00000000abfc0290 > ACPI: MADT (v001 A M I OEMAPIC 0x04000619 MSFT 0x00000097) @ > 0x00000000abfc0390 > ACPI: MCFG (v001 A M I OEMMCFG 0x04000619 MSFT 0x00000097) @ > 0x00000000abfc0400 > ACPI: OEMB (v001 A M I AMI_OEM 0x04000619 MSFT 0x00000097) @ > 0x00000000abfce040 > ACPI: DSDT (v001 A0368 A0368001 0x00000001 INTL 0x02002026) @ > 0x0000000000000000 > Scanning NUMA topology in Northbridge 24 > Number of nodes 1 > Node 0 MemBase 0000000000000000 Limit 00000000abfc0000 > Entering add_active_range(0, 0, 159) 0 entries of 3200 used > Entering add_active_range(0, 256, 704448) 1 entries of 3200 used > NUMA: Using 63 for the hash shift. > Using node hash shift of 63 > Bootmem setup node 0 0000000000000000-00000000abfc0000 > Zone PFN ranges: > DMA 0 -> 4096 > DMA32 4096 -> 1048576 > Normal 1048576 -> 1048576 > early_node_map[2] active PFN ranges > 0: 0 -> 159 > 0: 256 -> 704448 > On node 0 totalpages: 704351 > DMA zone: 64 pages used for memmap > DMA zone: 1449 pages reserved > DMA zone: 2486 pages, LIFO batch:0 > DMA32 zone: 10943 pages used for memmap > DMA32 zone: 689409 pages, LIFO batch:31 > Normal zone: 0 pages used for memmap > Nvidia board detected.
