I have an NP-R509 and when I used mem=4096 I had only 3gb available to me. acpi=off booted with full RAM but caused other hassles. No boot flags caused a reboot loop.
There is a bios update as of April 2010 for the R509 that solved my problem. Bios updates fixes this for Samsung Laptops, you need Windows to run the .exe though, did not test it in wine for fear of bricking my laptop. -- Lucid Beta 64-bit doesn't boot on Samsung R510 with 4GB RAM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354824 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
