I have a proliant server ML350 G6 with 16 GB of RAM and Linux Ubutu 9.10 (Karmic) 32-bit kernel with PAE. That's my host and I'm running virtualbox 3.12. Virtualbox will not let me create virtual machines (guests) with more than 2.5 GB of RAM. For example, I am creating a virtual machine Windows 2008 Server Enterprise and I can assign up 2.5Gb of RAM which is very little to the requirements of this operating system. The Virtualbox manual online says: "...the "Enable PAE/NX" setting determines whether the PAE and NX capabilities of the host CPU will be exposed to the virtual machine. PAE stands for "Physical Address Extension". Normally, if enabled and supported by the operating system, then even a 32-bit x86 CPU can access more than 4 GB of RAM. This is made possible by adding another 4 bits to memory addresses, so that with 36 bits, up to 64 GB can be addressed. Some operating systems (such as Ubuntu Server) require PAE support from the CPU and cannot be run in a virtual machine without it". I have done all the processes recommended in the forums and the manuals and the situation remains the same. I do not want to install 64-bit operating systems because I think we still have missing drivers, among other things. What may be happening?
