Various installation guides and usenet postings suggest either explicitly
specifying the memory, especially if you have over 64MB, or else lying about
the amount of memory e.g. using MEM=64M when yu really have 96M, when
you're having difficulty with the installation.
I haven't seen any specific reason (e.g. a code sample) as to exactly why
it helps, at this stage it may just be myth.
