I bought for a customer an IBM server model x3200 M3 with 4GB memory. I installed FreeBSD 9.0 release 32bit (this release is the only one that can detect the disks). For my great surprise and disappointment the system see available only 2GB. Here is the quote from dmesg.today:
Any suggestions how to make available all 4GB instead of only 2GB? This issue is critical. Does compilation of the kernel with certain values would make it available?
Please help!
