So the problem _does_ come from the BIOS !!! (and/or _possibly_
the RAM circuitry itself, especially if the system is overclocked :-)
The right question, now, is: do you _need_ the OS/2 setting ???

As I said before, linux _does not attempt_ (AFAIK) to check itself
the amount of memory, because it might hang the machine on some
configs.
Instead it just asks the BIOS.
Now, is your BIOS _ever_ correctly reporting the memory that you have
???
