Hello pros!
I've got an old box with some bad memory... Can I pass the memmap kernel option to a minimal install cd boot command?
Load cd... at boot prompt...
gentoo memmap=20M$760M
thanks,
david. |

I think that would work but to be sure, check the Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt for that kernel version and make sure it's still listed as an option. On the version I'm looking at, it's still here. |
