Does your bios have the setting memory hole at 64M activated? I'm not sure if that's the exact option. I only vaguely remember something like that as I haven't rebooted for such a long time - and sorry - I refuse to for this! ;-)

Cheers,
Jason.

I just purchased two Athalon-based systems, each with 768M of ram.
However, under debian (potato runnin kernel 2.2.17) the OS sees only 65

mem=768M

but it still sees only 65 M?

Does anyone have any ideas?

I haven't tried on my athlon, but i've heard that grub will autodetect your ram correctly, and pass the info to the kernel. Still doesn't help with the fact that mem= isn't working for you, but its a start :)
