[lug] memory issue

[Jon Sprague]

One time at band camp....

I mean, one time I had 384 MB of RAM (1x256 & 1x128 DIMMS) and the BIOS 
only supported 256MB. The BIOS said it had 256MB, but Linux said it had 
384MB. I couldn't figure it out.

I know that doesn't help you, but I thought I would share.
