Hi,

I ran into the same problem - when I booted with memtest86+ 4.0 on my Debian Squeeze box it only detected 640k (which made for a very quick and successful test :)

I suspect this is related to #540572 and the use of multiboot.

I downloaded the memtest86+ bin directly from their site and changed /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ to use that bin with linux16 instead of multiboot and it runs and correctly detects the full amount of memory (I tried the Debian memtest86+ binary image aswell but it failed to load, presumably because it has been modified to work with multiboot).
