Hi!

I have experienced exactly the same problems as the OP and others in
this thread.
Uncommenting the line from param.conf did the trick; thanks for the
suggestion to
all the fellow bug submitters.

Given that update-initramfs did not work properly, I had to manually fix the
initramfs file:
$ mkdir /tmp/bla; cd /tmp/bla
$ gzip -cd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.30-1-686-bigmem | cpio -imd
Make the appropriate change in conf/param.conf with vi (no Emacs in
Busybox, doh).
$ find . | cpio -H newc -o | gzip -9 -n > /boot/initrd.img-2.6.30-1-686-bigmem

Given my GRUB was already properly set up, I didn't need to run "update-grub".

Cheerio
