That would seem to indicate that lilo and grub aren't detecting memory correctly (it's not the kernel, so mem="" won't help you), but "syslinux" is. I wonder if you could use a FreeDOS boot floppy and Loadlin.exe to load the kernel and boot... I don't know enough about GRUB to debug its memory routines, but this message looked interesting (assuming you know how to use specific stage_* loaders...): http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/bug-grub/1999-May/003008.html Also... what FS are you using on /boot?
