It appears that get_ramsize() botches the calculation of amount of
memory free, which causes no end of trouble when the value is used 
to derrive other values (like partition table defaults).

Because ramsize is a long, the expression that computes rammb over-
flows on my 2GB machine.  ramsize itself starts out overflowed on >
2GB machines.
