Then you run get_ram_size() twice, and it will find 1 GiB and 512 MiB of memory - what's the problem? > I thought get_ram_size() was supposed to safely determine how much RAM is > actually in the system? Otherwise, it should be called verify_ram_size(). Indeed it is intended to determine tha actual RAM size - and does so fine in dozens of board configurations.
