This is weird, maybe one of your dimms is bad ? Run memtest86
for 5-6 hrs. to verify it before installing. (www.lnx-bbc.org
for a nice small rescue cd with memtest86 in)

After u have your memory working, install debian, get
linux-2.4.21 sources from www.kernel.org (not debian's
kernel-source deb), and go to
http://members.optusnet.com.au/ckolivas/kernel/ and get ACPI &
nForce2 patches, apply them, make-kpkg (or make bzImage etc.)
your new kernel & install it. Reboot, 'apt-get install acpid'
and ta da :)
