No.

3.5GB is the limit for pure 32bit, but with PAE you can allocate up tp 64G (AFAIK).

Only single processes are limited to ~3GB.

 

This counts for Windows and Linux…

Hello,

I installed Xen on a Debian Etch following this tutorial :

http://www.howtoforge.com/debian_etch_xen_3.1_p2

The problem is that it only recognizes 3.5GB of RAM although I have 8GB ! I then found this tutorial to help fix this :

http://www.howtoforge.com/make-your-xen-pae-kernel-work-with-more-than-4gb-ram-debian-etch-grub

Didn't change anything really...

Does anyone have an idea, how I can remove this limit ?

Thank you in advance,
