How's come free (and top) show my machine as having 124 MB of RAM, when it
has 128 MB? I noticed that RHL 6.1 does the same thing, shows that the
machine has less RAM that what it actually has).

I'm using YDL CS 1.1 on a B&W G3/400 rev. 2.

free and top with DR3 on an 8100/80 shows the 'correct' amount of RAM, so
why the diff with YDL and RHL?
