Subject: Re: [Bug 11388] New: 2.6.27-rc3 warns about MTRR range; only 3 of
16gb of memory is usable
Both hunks in the patch applied with an offset of -36 but the show_msr
flag doesn't seem to have any effect. The dmesg is still the same
number of lines accord to wc.
I'm attaching the new dmesg anyways.
$ cat /proc/cmdline
root=/dev/ram0 real_root=/dev/sda3 init=/linuxrc show_msr=1 console=tty0
console=ttyS0,115200n8
