VirtualBox is limited to 1.5 GB of RAM on 32-bit Windows hosts.
And on 32-bit Linux hosts ?
If you have PAE running (ie. your host can see all your RAM) then VBox
will access it. If you host can only see <4GB of it the VBox will limit to
<4GB.
P.S. VBox does not, I may stand corrected on this, 'limit' to 1.5GB Memory
allocation but puts a warning at anything above 50% of the hosts available
memory.
P.S.S. The 3GB limit is not actually 3GB. It is (4GB -
all_other_required_memory_on_the_system) this 'all other' includes CPU
cache, gfx RAM etc. it is a limit that 32bit OSs have without PAE.
