Not all memory available

I am using RedHat 5. From what I see, that is not available in 5. I did
see a kernel-PAE and that does work. I tried the following 2 lines and both
returned no results:
yum search highmen
yum search highmem
Going to redhat network and searching shows that kernel-hugemem is for
version 4 and 5. kernel-bigmem is for 7.3, 8 and 9. The only one that I
found for version I found for RHEL 5 is the kernel-PAE and that seems to
work.
Thanks
Steve

No,
You need to install the highmen kernel, its already done for you by RedHat.
yum search highmen

Thank You. kernel-PAE. I notice that there isn't a kernel-PAE-headers
though. Does the kernel-PAE use the normal kernel-headers?

You need to change your kernel to a version who suports PAE, i think
kernel-xxx-highmem
grep pae /proc/cpuinfo
Because by default the 32bit plataform only suports 4Gb, to work with
more
than that you need emulation (PAE)

I have a server that had 2GB of memory on it. I just up it to 8GB.
During
boot, it shows all 8GB, but my Redhat only shows 4GB. I didn't install
the
desktop version...as far as I know. Is there something else needed to
see
more then 4GB?
