Debian系统更新内核支持bigmem版本解决认不到4g内存

 

最近安装了Debian 6.0.1a i3 却发现内核没有自动加载上PAE

以下命令得知系统装了两条2G 的内存条,硬件最大支持64G内存

dmidecode -t memory

# dmidecode 2.9

SMBIOS 2.5 present.

但是通过free 命令得到只有3.3G

 

 

再去之前几台装了Debian 5.0.4 upd  查看free 命令得到只有3G

 

 

对应的内核不一样，得到内存总数也不一样，针对这个问题只能安装个支持4G(bigmem) 对应内核版本 由于要安装对应内核版本，所以先查看内核版本 root@debian:~/soft# uname -a Linux debian 2.6.32-5-686 #1 SMP Tue Mar 8 21:36:00 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux 2.6.32-5-686 这个有32-31 与32-35  请注意   为了能搜索更多安装包，先更新一下更新debian 源   #Vi /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://mirrors.163.com/debian lenny main non-free contrib  deb http://mirrors.163.com/debian lenny-proposed-updates main contrib non-free deb http://mirrors.163.com/debian-security lenny/updates main contrib non-free  deb-src http://mirrors.163.com/debian lenny main non-free contrib deb-src http://mirrors.163.com/debian lenny-proposed-updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://mirrors.163.com/debian-security lenny/updates main contrib non-free   再执行以下几个命令 #apt-get update #apt-get upgrade #apt-get dist-upgrade   apt-cache search -t squeeze-backports linux-image linux-headers-2.6.26-1-openvz-686 - Header files for Linux 2.6.26-1-openvz-686 linux-headers-2.6.26-1-vserver-686-bigmem - Header files for Linux 2.6.26-1-vserver-686-bigmem linux-headers-2.6.26-1-vserver-686 - Header files for Linux 2.6.26-1-vserver-686 linux-headers-2.6.26-1-xen-686 - Header files for Linux 2.6.26-1-xen-686 linux-image-2.6.26-1-486 - Linux 2.6.26 image on x86 linux-image-2.6.26-1-686-bigmem - Linux 2.6.26 image on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/P4 linux-image-2.6.26-1-686 - Linux 2.6.26 image on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/P4 linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64 - Linux 2.6.26 image on AMD64 linux-image-2.6.26-1-openvz-686 - Linux 2.6.26 image on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/P4, OpenVZ support linux-image-2.6.26-1-vserver-686-bigmem - Linux 2.6.26 image on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/P4, Linux-VServer support linux-image-2.6.26-1-vserver-686 - Linux 2.6.26 image on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/P4, Linux-VServer support linux-image-2.6.26-1-xen-686 - Linux 2.6.26 image on i686, oldstyle Xen support linux-image-2.6.32-5-686 - Linux 2.6.32 for modern PCs linux-image-2.6.32-5-686-bigmem - Linux 2.6.32 for PCs with 4GB+ RAM linux-image-2.6-686 - Linux 2.6 for modern PCs (meta-package)   一直搜索不到以下版本，挺蛋疼的 linux-image-2.6.32-5-686-bigmem_2.6.32-31_i386.deb 只找到这个版本 linux-image-2.6.32-5-686-bigmem_2.6.32-35_i386.deb 而这个版本，系统本身的 linux-base  (>= 2.6.32-35) ，所以无奈之下升级到linux-base_2.6.32-35 ，再安装linux-image-2.6.32-5-686-bigmem_2.6.32-35_i386.deb ，之前为什么没想直接升级linux-base ，因为升级这个会可能导致一些设备驱动无法兼容导致没加载成功   用root 用户安装 wget  http://ftp.cn.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-2.6/linux-base_2.6.32-35_all.deb dpkg -i linux-base_2.6.32-35_all.deb wget  http://ftp.cn.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-2.6/linux-image-2.6.32-5-686-bigmem_2.6.32-35_i386.deb dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.32-5-686-bigmem_2.6.32-35_i386.deb   或者aptitude install linux-image-2.6.32-5-686-bigmem 新内核加到开机启动菜单 root@debian:/etc# update-grub Generating grub.cfg ...
