Recently someone had problems with a motherboard that used a bit of
memory at the top. The problem was that mknbi didn't use the E820 BIOS
call for memory sizing and overestimated memory. This in turn caused the
kernel to complain that the initrd was loaded too high. I've added the
E820 capability to mknbi. You can get a test version of mknbi-1.2-7
from:

        http://etherboot.sourceforge.net/mknbi-1.2-7rc1.tar.gz

It would appreciated if affected users give this a whirl and report
if this solves the problem.

A temporary workaround available to 1.2-6 users is to use the kernel
parameter mem= to specify the real top of memory. mknbi 1.2-6 takes note
of that.
