From: Eric Negaard <negaard@aerospace> I am in the process of bringing up 4.1bsd UN*X on our second VAX 11/780, using the distribution tape from our first one. The problem is that the system only sees 8M of our 16M memory. I thought I had isolated the problem to the following lines in locore.s: /* count up memory */ clrl r7 1: pushl $4; pushl r7; calls $2,_badaddr; tstl r0; bneq 9f acbl $8096*1024-1,$64*1024,r7,1b 9: I doubled the limit from 8096 to 16192, and this is what I got when I tried to bring up the new system: . . . Berkeley VAX/UNIX . . . real mem 16579584 panic: sys pt too small . . . What is going on? Can anyone help me? Replies to me, I'll summarize results if anyone is interested.
