Ok here is the memory and kernel information it doesn't state PAE yet it seems to recognise the 32G.

Btw., if you want to see if all device have kernel modules, use output of "lspci -nnk".
[1] I include the output of "lspci -nnk" below.. problem is I am not sure the best way to interpret the information. Can I assume that if the kernel picks a driver for a device i.e. the "ATA controller [0106]: Device [1b4b:9130]" then this is properly supported by the kernel *or* could it be it picks a generic driver that might / might not work properly? I hope it will work properly being an enterprise distribution?
[2] I am still confused how given the kernel reports as being
2.6.18-348.12.1.el5 #1 SMP and not a PAE kernel.. Why am I seeing MemTotal: 3574676 kBSteve
[1] I can not help you with explanation about usage of kernel modules, but I am sure somebody will jump in.
[2] "yum install kernel-PAE" will install PAE enabled kernel and after reboot you should access full memory.
