\&'mem=0x1000000' means you have 16MB of memory, for example.
For a 96MB machine this would be 'mem=0x6000000'.
-NOTE NOTE NOTE: some machines might use the top of memory for BIOS

The reverse is also true: some chipsets will map
When this feature is enabled, the boot process will load the kernel
and an initial ramdisk; then the kernel converts initrd into
a "normal" ramdisk, which is mounted read-write as root device;
-then /linuxrc is executed; afterwards the "real" root file system is mounted,

the usual boot sequence (e.g., invocation of /sbin/init) is performed.
