My new Thinkpad x61 has 4 GB of RAM.
The BIOS can see 4 GB.
OBSD-4.2 and 4.3 (snapshot 07/04/2008), both i386 and amd64, can see
only 3 GB.
What can I do to make OBSD see all the RAM?
FYI, the Windows XP that preinstalled by IBM can also see only 3 GB.
Thanks,

"If you install 4Gb, there is no way to make all of the RAM between 3Gb
and 4Gb available without installing a 64-bit OS, which you can't do
unless you have a 64-bit CPU. And even then it won't necessarily work.
So, to avoid hassles on current systems, it's best to stick with 3Gb or
less."
I don't really know if this is the real explanation.
If not sorry for the noise
