PAE enabled kernels are necessary on some configurations with 4GB of RAM or more. PAE enables the system to recognize the ram and display it. Non-pae kernels will only show around 3.2gb of RAM.
This is only for an RH-based OS (FC, Centos, etc..):
As root, run:
yum install kernel-PAE
After that's setup, edit your /boot/grub/grub.conf file to select the newly installed kernel.
Then reboot the system and that's it!
Just a note that while editing the grub.conf file, be sure to set the 'default' parameter to correspond to the correct placement of your PAE kernel. Usually, it'll be the first one since it was installed last. So, have it say this:
default=0
grub counts kernels like 0,1,2,3 so the first kernel is 0 and so forth.
If 'yum -y install kernel-PAE' says no packages are found, edit /etc/yum.conf and delete the 'kernel-pae' and 'kernel-PAE' from the exclude line. Then try it again.
I have had my hosting with AYK since 2006, and it has by far been the best experience I have ever had with any hosting company. The support is always spot on and available around the clock, excellent for me since I'm always working on things at odd hours. They make upgrading to fit needs very clean and easy, the cost is excellent for services received, and they have me as a customer for life.
Even though I only have a shared hosting plan, their technical support team responded to my tech support request within the hour, and correctly to boot. (I needed to have a subdomain point to a Tumblr blog by changing the CNAME.)
Hi guys, I am pretty satisfied with your service. Yes, I have experienced some downtime issues with my boxes, but you guys have always been right there for me, at my beck and call whenever I need you. Additionally, you guys are always more than fair when it comes to helping me configure my boxes with my DirectAdmin control panel. Overall, I am very pleased with the service, both in terms of the hardware I receive from you as well as the customer service. Prices seem to be quite fair too. Thanks, Ephi
