My Compaq Deskpro 590 is loaded with 48MB, but just 16MB
are recognized: dmesg tells the following

FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE #0: Wed Mar 27 14:31:31  1996
    haener@harpo:/usr/src/sys/compile/CUSTOM
CPU: 90-MHz Pentium 735\\90 (Pentium-class CPU)
  Origin = "GenuineIntel"  Id = 0x525  Stepping=5
  Features=0x1bf<FPU,VME,PSE,MCE,CX8,APIC>
real memory  = 16777216 (16384K bytes)
avail memory = 14901248 (14552K bytes)
Probing for devices on the ISA bus:

has anybody an idea what I have to do that FreeBSD recognizes
all my memory?
Thanks for your help.
Patrick
