Posted: Wed Feb 23, 2005 5:19 pm Post subject: noob question about RAM |
|
|
I'm going to get another 512MB RAM in a few days but plan to reinstall gentoo (stage1) tomorrow. What do I need to do when I have installed the RAM ? Just rebuild my kernel ?
Do I even need to do that ? or should I wait till I get my RAM before reinstalling ?
Thanks |

How much RAM are you going to have? Most likely, you don't need to do anything. (Although, depending on how much you're going to hvae, you may need to enable HIMEM in the kernel.) |

Only up to 1Gb - will that cause any issue ? |

Nope. You should be fine. |
