You can adjust the memory, I got a utility "MemoryAdj" from
http://www.cableone.net/evalondon/be300/swr.html which does the trick.. I
was able to get the kernel to boot... made it to a grey screen and it
locked my unit. I had to remove the battery for several min. to get it
back.. reset/power+reset/etc with no luck.
