Dear all,

I also noticed that, from manual page, if you use:

mem=memory
This controls how much "physical" memory the kernel
allocates for the system. The size is specified  as  a  number
 followed by one of ’k’, ’K’, ’m’, ’M’, which have the
obvious meanings.  This is not related to the amount of memory
 in the physical machine. It can be more, and the
excess, if it’s ever used, will just be swapped out.

- mem=256m it works
- while mem=256M it crashes!

Any suggestion?
