Is the backtrack 4 pre final kenrel compiled with PAE support set ? If not you will need to recompile the kernel with Physical Address Extension Physical Address Extension - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

If it is, post output of

Code:
dmesg | grep e820
And ..

Code:
free -l
and ..

Code:
dmidecode -t 16
dmidecode -t 17
and last but not least

Code:
lspci -v
