Your kernel config is off: for 1GB:

OK I'll be willing to try this - where is the file that Hugo was
referring to in which I can change this, or is this rolling a new
kernel with these configs?
Cheers
Install the bigmem linux-image

Thanks for the suggestion(s). I am presuming that there is a Debian-way
of compiling one's own kernel with the configs and bigmem image. Can
someone point me in the direction of some decent (easy-to-follow for we
kernel-rolling-impaired folk) documentation. The main Debian site docs
(e.g. http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-kernel.en.html )
are still referring to the 2.4 kernel except at the end (7.4) where the
docs state that udev is a dynamic replacement for /dev/ which, to be
honest, doesn't make a whole bunch of sense to me.
TIA
