SubjectRe: problems with 1gb ddr memory sticks on linux
Many thanks to Alan, Mark, and everyone else who offered advice on fixing my
problem with my bios and large memory sticks. I rewrote the /proc/mtrr
and everything is speedy now!

Thank you!
Bryan

You are correct he should add one starting at 0 for 1Gb and one at 1Gb
for 256Mb - my error.
