EiB address space.
the G5 only supports 8GB of memory. 8GB minus to 2GB used by MorphOS leaves 6GB for other tasks.
Surely this is a limitation for physical RAM, yes? But with 64-bit address space in OS and virtual memory, this will expand over hdd/ssd, right? And a lot more than 32-bit, right?
Yes, its just a design feature.
The architecture is fully 64 bit.
And a quick question (probably need Andreas to answer this), what are the memory limits for the X5000?
