Hello all,
I'm having arch on both my desktop (since few months, after a year of gentoo) and now also on my first and new server.
This home server has got the following hardware:
AMD x2 3600+
2* 1Gb ram
A gigabyte motherboard with a ATI chipset (don't know the exact model out of my head)
Tagan 400W PSU
I installed arch on it, and some server needed apps like DHCP server, ftp etc.
When i connect to it using ssh (server is headless), and then running 'htop' i can only see like 8**Mb of my 2Gb ram, on my desktop pc i'm not having this problem.
I ran make menuconfig in the arch kernel tree, and there i saw the 'high ram' option was enabled.
Anybody who knows what's wrong with it ?
Already thanks,
Evert

Are you sure the banks fit in tight?
I mean... For 32 bit OS'es problems with > 3GB RAM are quite common, but I've never heard this with less. Most probably there is something wrong with your hardware setup. Does it show in the BIOS?
Do/did other OSes (thinking about Windows) show it right?

Ok, i opened it and i seemed to have forgotten something during installing the hardware in the case, in fact i forgot to put one of the two ram bar's in it. I found the other, still in my room somewhere . Sorry then for this topic, hardware is always first thing you've to look after before searching for a long time .
I'm still having another problem: when uploading from my desktop pc to the ftp server running on it (it goes like 50-60MB/s, i'm having gbit network) i see the load of the core's in htop increase to 100% for first core and like 30 for second core... Is this normal ?
Thanks for this solution .
