Subject512 Mb DIMM not detected by the BIOS!
Hello everyone!

I'm new to this mailinglist so please tellme if you think i'm "out of
topoic".

I've have trouble with the following issue:
On two x86 machines, one AMD k62 and a Pentium the Bios dont wont to
detect properly a 512 MB PC133 DIMM, the K62 based it dont detect it at
all, and on the PII it detect it as a 128MB DIMM.
I suspect that's the BIOS that "sucks", not the HW, i supose that the HW
is capable to deal with 512MB DIMM's, so my question to you
"kernel-gurus", is there any posibility to configure the Linux kernel to
bypass the BIOS and actually use my 512MB ?

Thanks!

/Benny
