Thanks a bunch! I wasn't able to figure that out myself, I knew it was

I had 1.5 GB (333 Mhz) in a system running Sarge with a 2.6 kernel and all of
it was used. I've just replaced the .5 GB stick with a 1 GB stick, giving me
2 GB of RAM. When I boot, the motherboard reports 2 GB, but when I check:
