Boot problems with grub and 4GB+



Hi,

grub still has problems booting on high end systems (4GB ram or
more). With ram getting cheaper and more used by the minute this could
affect more and more Debian installations.

(see: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=254798)

Given the timeframe for the release it doesn't look likely that
upstream will fix this but. Would it be possible for D-I to default to
lilo when it detects >2GB ram (people with this problem reported lilo
works or grub when they remove all but 2GB ram)?
