Did the RAM limits change for Home edition for 16.05.2 to 4GB?

Did the limits for RAM on Home edition get changed with SFOS 16.05.2 MR2? I'm only seeing 4GB after update. Still only showing 4GB after rolling back to SFOS 16.05.1 MR-1. I was seeing 6GB usable before upgrade.

Hi BrianHawkins1,
No idea if it is releated but I have a ZBOX CI323 NANO-U and it uses an Intel N3150 cpu as well. What hardware are you using for your XG? DavidWilliams1 what hardware are you running sophos on? I agree with DavidWilliams1 and think this is some kind of weird licensing issue, but maybe its a licensing issue with ties to a certain piece of hardware?

the kernel RAM limits appear to be correct... something else is restricting the RAM.

I use the same ZBOX setup, with an Crucial 8GB Kit and a 60gb SSD.

I recently setup Home edition on a zbox Ci323 nano as well. It has 2x4G memory sticks, They were fully tested using memtest86 before installing XG.

I booted the system from a linux cd after seeing only 4G used by XG and the linux OS sees all 8GB.
