mem=1G
mem=512M
etc.
- pilif 13y agothat reminds me of that day when I set mem = 512 before rebooting. Ever since then, I know why my primary school teacher always got pissed when we left off the units :-) On a related note: Yes. The kernel needs more than 512 bytes of RAM to boot - even back in the 2.2 days (when this took place)
