I've got this Pentium Pro that runs really well, NetBSD 1.2 configured
OK and everything.  However, I think NetBSD is having trouble
recognizing all the available memory.  For some reason, the machine was
given to me with 96MB of memory (1 64MB DIMM, 1 32 MB SIMM).

The old O.S. (Windows NT) recognized the memory fine, as did DOS.  When
the system boots, I see
640K Base, 097280 Extended Memory

Then, when NetBSD boots up, however, it flashes the following across the
screen:
real mem = 33161216
avail mem = 28975104

Am I nuts or does this seem like it is only seeing 32MB?  Thanks for any
pointers.
