Check https://sourceforge.net/projects/memconf/ or my website at
https://www.4schmidts.com/unix.html to get the latest version of memconf.
If memconf does not recognize a system, then please run 'memconf -D' to
have it automatically E-mail me the information I need to enhanced to
recognize it. If the unrecognized system is a Sun clone, please also send
any hardware documentation on the memory layout that you may have.
Usage: memconf [ -v | -D | -h ] [explorer_dir]
-v verbose mode
-D E-mail results to memconf maintainer
-h print help
explorer_dir Sun/Oracle Explorer output directory
memconf reports the size of each SIMM/DIMM memory module installed in a
system. It also reports the system type and any empty memory sockets.
In verbose mode, it also reports the following information if available:
- banner name, model and CPU/system frequencies
- address range and bank numbers for each module
