My problem may be related to the amount of memory in the Mac. Also
we've only seen the problem on G5 Macs - Intel Mac Pros work fine.
One of our QA guys gets consistent test failures, and one kernel panic
on a 5 GB dual G5. The G5 I have has only 512 MB of RAM. I just
emailed my manager asking him to authorize the purchase of at least 4
GB more.
I understand that the kernel always runs in 32-bit mode, even on
machines with large memory that have userspace programs running
64-bit. How exactly is this handled by the kernel?
The details are complicated and probably not relevant to your problem.
It would help, as I noted in private email, if you were to describe
the nature of the data comparison errors you're seeing, as this could
help those of us intimately familiar with the sort of trouble you
might be having to point you in a useful direction.
