[[!meta title="512 MiB RAM Limit"]]
Just like any 32bit OS without bad tricks, GNU Mach does not cope well with lots
of memory. Newer versions of the Debian `gnumach` package will limit themselves
to around 1 GiB of memory. If you want more, you can twiddle the VM_MAX_ADDRESS
limit between kernelland and userland in i386/include/mach/i386/vm_param.h.
If you have an older version, or still experience problems with `vmstat` (see
above) reported much less memory than you have, the best is to limit the memory
it can see via GRUB's `upppermem` feature. Add `uppermem 786432` to GRUB's Hurd
entry in `menu.lst`.
