RE: [Xen-users] Why my system only use 3.3G memory ?

["Ian Pratt" <m+Ian.Pratt@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

(XEN) Physical RAM map:
(XEN)  0000000000000000 - 00000000000a0000 (usable)
(XEN)  0000000000100000 - 00000000cffc0000 (usable)
(XEN)  00000000cffc0000 - 00000000cffcfc00 (ACPI data)

Your BIOS has created a whole at the top of the memory map into which the 
memory mapped PCI devices have been placed, effectively hiding the memory from 
use.

What is slightly odd is that the whole is larger than I've seen before. I 
presume its the area between cffff000 and e0000000 which isn't listed in the 
e820 map (everything above cffc0000 is unusable). 

You'll have to wait until xen3 and use x86_32pae or x86_64 to use more memory.
