Memory and 64bit *Solved*
Hi. I'm a noob to bsd and freenas, I like to think I'm handy at linux.
I installed the 32 bit freenas to poke at it. The box then had 2 gig ram. I got some more memory for the box, total of 8 gig, and upgraded to 64 bit. The system now reports it has 3 gig of ram.
The box config now is a single core celeron proc, 8 gig ram, 1 pata cd drive, 1 pata 160 gig hard drive (for booting), and 6 sata 1TB drives in 1 zfs volume.
I've upgraded, and done a complete wipe and install. The system still only sees 3 gig ram. All 8 gig are seen in bios. I've not done a memtest yet.
I found the arc_summary.py from another thread and it also reports a total of 3 gig "Real Installed" ram.
I've verified I'm running a 64 bit version, but I'm confused with the uname -a report. I got the 8.0.4-p1 iso, the name of the iso matches, but uname reports:
Is this saying I really got the 8.2 beta, or the 8.0.4-p1 release? I kinda indicates both.
Any thoughts on the memory issue?
Cheers,
