recognizing 8GB RAM? (4.5)

2009-02-24 Thread David Heinrich
How do I get the kernel to recognize 8GB of RAM? It is only recognizing 3.3GB? Also, where do I go for packages for 4.5 current? The install.amd64 file reference ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.5/amd64 but no such ftp exists. -Dave dmesg below: ing; disabled or no drives?) ppb3 at pci0 dev 2

I am trying to install OpenBSD 4.4 amd64 onto my system. I obtained the install CD ISO from ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.4/amd64/install44.iso and ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.4/amd64/cd44.iso (the same thing happens whether I use the full or mini boot CD made from those ISO files).
