The options you need are: Processor type and features: --> High Memory Support --> 64 GB --> Symmetric multi-processing support. If kernel building seems to be too risky for you then you need to install: rpm -ivh kernel-smp-2.4.18-3.i686.rpm=20 This should give you the SMP support but I cannot say whether the entire memory is going to be recognized. I guess both will but try.
