Change 78840 by peter at peter_daintree on 2005/06/23 01:45:13
Don't print the meaningless Maxmem "largest memory address" with the
implication that it is how much memory the machine has. Memory remapping
makes this a joke. Instead, display physmem as 'usable memory' which is
far more useful. It doesn't count the hole that the kernel lives in though.
That should be fixed before this is even considered for committing.
