Hello DrJ,
thank god that i saw your post! i have been trying to nail this issue for months... it had occurred to me that only freebsd has this strange memory size limitation, not windows or linux.
after reading your post, i couldn't find anything talked about on this topic through google. i would like to learn more why memory relocation is a problem in this scenario, and why memory size <3GB would work but not more. could you give me some references to read?
thanks a lot again
