Subject: Alpine 3.18 x86-32 not detecting all RAM
To: ~alpine/users@lists.alpinelinux.org
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"

I did a custom installation of 3.18 onto an old Sony Vaio P VGN-P11Z.
It is a dual core Atom sub-netbook [sic] maxed out with 2GB of RAM. I
replaced Raspberry Pi Desktop. It dual-boots with Win XP.

It is working well but only detects 854MB of RAM. I have 2048MB of
RAM, as seen by XP and RPD, and the `dmidecode` tool sees 2GB.

I have tried passing `mem=2G` to the kernel; no change. I am using
`mitigations=off zswap.enabled=1` but removing them makes no
difference.

Today I updated and went from kernel 6.1-29 to 6.1-30. No change.

I am baffled. Anyone have any clues?
