Hi Arjan & others,

Thank you for setting me straight on this issue.

I guess it was just a coincidence that some of the kernels worked with
mem=12G and others didn't.  I've moved the machine to a new location and
now *none* of the kernels I have (neither mine nor the Fedora ones) will
boot with "mem=12G".  The best I can get to work is "mem=3950M".

I'll try re-seating the RAM and see if that helps.

Ed
