Then it doesn't work...My system sees only 64M if I don't specify
'mem=192m'

This is not true. From the BootPrompt-HOWTO:

The `mem=' Argument
...
Note that the argument does not have to be in hex, and the suffixes `k'
and `M' (case insensitive) can be used to specify kilobytes and Megabytes,
respectively. (A `k' will cause a 10 bit shift on your value, and a `M'
will cause a 20 bit shift.) A typical example for a 128MB machine would be
"mem=128m".
