I have two problems with my RedHat 5.0 (2.0.31) kernel:

1) Linux isn't seeing all 128Mb or my RAM - it's only seeing the first 64Mb
of it.

2) I updated to the 2.0.32 kernel last night and whilst it runs the machine
just fine etc.. the sound isn't working. there is an error when the kernel
boots saying that it can't find the sound modules.

Can some one shed any light on these problems??? The sound thing is a module
loading problem I think but I don't know how to add the pointers to the
modules so the kernel can find them at boot time (maybe I did something
wrong?).

The memory problem has me completely stumped because my WinNT.0 installation
(yes! I know ;( sees all 128Mb as it should. - can some one help me with
this one? It's more  important that the kernel sees all 128Mb at this time
than having blaring .mod/mpega/cdda audio.

thanks in advance.

Ivan.
