[Asterisk-Users] Memory Problems

[Joseph Tanner]

Something like:

up2date -i kernel-hugemem

Then make the appropriate changes in /etc/grub.conf, reboot, and see
if it works.  Of course, that's an overly simplified explanation, if
this is a production system please research this first.  If it's a
test system, well what's the worst that could happen?
