- memory size configured in decimal, MBytes
- config.in issues cleaned up
- it actually compiles and works, unlike the previous version ;)
it was sanity booted on pre1-2.1.90.

+Max physical memory
+CONFIG_MAX_MEMSIZE
+ Linux/x86 can use up to 3.8 gigabytes of physical memory. Default
+ is max 1 gigabyte physical memory (1024 MB), this is enough for
+ most systems.
+ A system with 2G physical memory should use a value of ~2400, a
+ system with 3.8G memory should use something like 3900. A bit of
+ experimentation with the limit wont hurt, the kernel needs a ~128M
+ window for vmalloc() plus PCI space uses up some memory too, thus
+ addresses above FD000000 should rather be kept free.
