Thanks. Here are a couple follow-up question then. (1) If I start 2 separate VMWare processes, they should each be able to grab 3GB of memory (more or less) - is that right? (2) My Dell box has 2 Xeon processors and I'm running the SMP kernel. Even without CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G, should the 2 pro

I'm running debian on a dell poweredge 1750 and just intalled 6GB of memory. Its a dual-processor machine and I use it with VMWare to run multiple virtual machines. Problem - I can only "see" 4GB of memory. Here is the output from "free -m": [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ free -m total
