- Am I crazy or what...?
-
- Somewhere (probably this news group) I seem to remember a suggestion
- that one build the Ultrix kernal for slightly more physical memory
- that one actually has....
- Memory boards == 64MB
-
- then in /sys/conf/mips/'MACHINENAME' set
-
- physmem 72
-
- Did I dream this?..I thought I saved the article... now can't find it.
- I think it had to do with bumping some internal pointers up and
- eliminating wasted memory inherent in Ultrix.....
-
- Thanks.
