36bit addressing - adding more memory

From: Siva Prasad <hidden>

Hi,

 

I am using 8641D and was wondering how to use 36bit addressing in Linux
to add more memory to the system.

 

I hear some Pentium architectures starting from Pentium Pro (PAE mode)
did the exact same thing to support extended memory. How does Linux 2.6
help us take advantage of this?

 

Thanks

Siva

Hi, Siva,

Please use plain text to send email.

36bit addressing is supported by 8641D, but not in kernel now.

Best Regards,
Wei.
