1gb ram workaround



I'm trying to track down much ram mach problem, but I'm not neither an
experienced C programmer and kernel developer, so for me it's quite hard
to do. Btw, I was able to boot my workstation with 1 Gb of ram just
forcing kernel to believe that system's got only 512mb, if anyone has
problems with booting with big amount of ram can just do this simple
hack in gnumach-20010718/i386/i386at/model_dep.c, changing line 204:

phys_last_addr = 0x100000 + (boot_info->mem_upper * 0x400);

to

phys_last_addr = 0x1fff0000;
