Got 2 new modules of RAM, 2GB Transcend DDR2-667.
I had before 2x1GB DDR533 + 2x512MB DDR667.
Now 2x512MB DDR667 + 2x2Gb DDR667. Detected by bios fine, 5GB as expected.
Now surprises:
2.6.23 32-bit, 4GB highmem - early kernel panic. Will prepare soon bugreport, if in 2.6.24-rc bug still exists.
2.6.24 32-bit with PAE and 64GB higmem works ok, except issues with non-cached memory in 32-bit mode. Have to try MM and 64-bit kernels(including 32-bit userspace). Probably will do some performance comparison.
And finally i decide to try Vista 64-bit. It is just TERRIBLE. Slow and buggy... trying to install their famous official SP1-RC, on E6600 with good SATA HDD it takes more than 2 hours. What, they are compiling it on my PC? Seems this people just know how to rob people money, not how to write software.
