Hi!
I have small problem with RAM in my server.
The system is debian etch.
When using "standart" 2.6.19.2 i686 linux kernel I have:
pi@debian:~$ cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 4133384 kB
When using vmlinuz-2.6.18-openvz-686 or vmlinuz-2.6.18-openvz-k7 I have:
debian:~/openvz# cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 3612916 kB
Is it normal? If so, why?
Is it wrong kernel? Should I use -enterprise kernel? If so, have you packaged -enterprise kernel for debian?
Thanks in advance,
Krzysztof

ouch, if talking about 2.6.18 - it has no 4GB Split patch yet, so enterprise kernel is the same as entnosplit.
in mainstream kernel it will continue to be the same.
for RHEL5 kernel we will ship as redhat does:
2.6.18 (w/o smp suffix, but smp (<=4GB RAM))
2.6.18-PAE (smp with PAE (64GB RAM) support)
plus
2.6.18-enterprise (smp with PAE and 4GB split)
