  To: Gentoo

I am having a problem putting 32GB or more of RAM into my system with 
Gentoo.

I can install Gentoo (2005.1 r1) perfectly fine even on 30GB or lower, 
once I get up in to the OS, if I shut down the machine and stock it up 
to 64GB, when the system comes back online, and goes to boot the kernel 
out of the loader, the system resets itself and goes back to POST.  Any 
ideas?

I've even tried to re-compile to kernel 2.6.15.4 and that gives me a 
panic citing an Oops! Attempted to kill init!

Let me know if you'd like more detail.

Thanks.

Does the kernel reboot itself or is it grub that chokes? Does it also have 
the problems with 32 GB, or with 48 GB? And what about 63 (if you can 
test that). You might also want to try to get at the output of the kernel 
before it reboots.

Please, to you and Stuart both (and others), no HTML on the list.  It is
regarded by many in the community as both insecure and a spam indicator,
and the use thereof as an indicator of aoler/newbie status.  Many either
filter it outright, or display it as plain text only, for security
reasons, and that just looks ugly, as you can see from the small snippet
above.

I apologize.  My e-mail client (thunderbird) has been auto selecting
