>Description:
Boot fails with error:
uvm_page_physload: unable to load physical memory segment
	3 segments allocated, ignoring 0x1000 -> 0xbfeo
panic: init386: can't find end of memory

 Exact error and hex codes may differ, as the screen clears immediately
after the panic. Problem occurs with stock CARDBUS kernel.
>How-To-Repeat:
Boot with latest kernel.

>Fix:
Use 1.5F kernel from 1 or 2 weeks ago.
