Crashes were routine, and I was not overclocking, so I took Mike's
advice and bought a new 256MB DIMM. The computer hasn't crashed
once since I installed it. Now, though, I have a curious though
fairly irrelevant problem. My kernel apparently sees less RAM than
I have.


[alex@localhost /home]$ free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers    
cached
Mem:           251        209         42         60        
61         92
-/+ buffers/cache:         55        196


I strongly doubt this can be a bug in the kernel. Could anyone
explain to me why this might happen?
