Description

Hi,

I am running Coreboot 4.3 release on the Asus F2a85-M with 16GB of Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR-1600 DIMMs at 1,5V (2 sticks). When I populate the remaining RAM slots with another 2 sticks of the same type, the system does not boot to the Payload. When I put only 1 of the additional sticks in (so in total I should have 24GB), the system boots fine but I am seeing 78GB (!!) of memory detected on the operating system - see the attached output.

I don't have the coreboot config at hand, but I am just running basically 4.3 release configured for this board together with the vgabios blob.

Is it safe to try the 4.4 prerelease to see if the bug can be reproduced there as well? I am just asking because I have no separate chip as backup nor the proper clip for hardware flashing this device.
