I have a machine with 8GB ram (BIOS sees it, so my motherboard and CPU supports it), and I installed CentOS 6.3 on it. When it starts up, it only see 3.1GB.

uname says: 2.6.32-279.1.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP

Update: Memtest see all the 8GB, and dmidecode -t 17 | grep Size too.
But free -m still see only 3.1 GB.

Question: How can I repair/modify the system, to see all the 8GB RAM?

Thanks in advance!
