Comment:

 I run Haiku regularly on a machine with 32GB of RAM.

 Based on the message in the EFI loader, it appears the problem is with
 addresses above the 512GB boundary, which may not mean more than 512GB
 itself. CC'ing jessicah, tqh, kallisti5 to see if any of them have an idea
 about what we are supposed to do here.

 There are options for viewing the bootloader log or onscreen debug output
 in the loader menus (spam the spacebar after your BIOS screen to get into
 that, if you can.)
