------------------ Additional Follow-up Comments ----------------------------
There is no response from the reporter, even though I sent an e-mail in which I 
asked him to confirm that this was due to Linux rather than GRUB. So I assume 
that this bug is not related to GRUB.

Summary:  GRUB can't load Linux kernel 2.6 initrds with large memory

Original Submission:  This change in CVS:

http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/grub/grub/stage2/boot.c.diff?r1=1.44&r2=1.45

caused GRUB to complain that the image would not fit in memory. the problem was 
worked around by:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi/01-0.94-initrdmax.patch?bug=254798&msg=3&att=3

Does anyone have an opinion on the nature of why this happened? I am thinking 
of adding debug statements...
