GRUB passes invalid mem= parameter to Linux kernel on system with 512 MB of physical RAM

[Derrik Pates]

I have discovered that this was the issue with a system that I had
previously reported that GRUB would Oops the kernel on - this is the
reason. Using the --no-mem-option flag to the 'kernel' command at the
grub> prompt causes this problem to go away.
