Probably it depends on the machine, since I get up to free_all_bootmem(), which
is called by mem_init() in start_kernel(). OK, I have a different box (CHRP)
and was actually speaking about 2.3.27, but the 2.3.28 patch doesn't contain
relevant changes.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
