Hi all...
Probably this is a stupid question, but anyways...
I'm trying to make a script to generate an /etc/motd, and I wanted to
include memory size of the box.
I tried:
echo $(($(stat -c %s /proc/kcore) / 1024 / 1024)) "Mb"
but it gives 1022 for a 1Gb box.
In fact:
werewolf:~# ll /proc/kcore
-r-------- 1 root root 1072566272 2005.10.23 23:53 /proc/kcore
werewolf:~# stat -c %s /proc/kcore
1072566272
werewolf:~# echo $((1024*1024*1024))
1073741824
Why that difference ?
TIA
BTW, any simple method to get the real mem of the box ?
