Using bigsmp kernel for RAM above 3Gig

Hi All,

Does anyone know the install option (if any) for selecting the kernel-bigsmp to allow use of RAM above 3Gig, please?

I have the manual process for this, but an up2date reverted us to the standard kernel.

Post install you can do

mount /opt/inst/
cd /opt/inst/rpm
ll | grep kernel
rpm -Uvh

And select the bigsmp kernel. But I was hoping to do it as an install time switch.

Thanks in advance,

Adrien.

Hi, Astaro Version 8 (in beta) has a 64-bit kernel choice during installation, which would solve the problem for you as long as your CPU supports 64-bit mode.

Yeah, I would just hold out for Version 8... it won't be too much longer now.
