Due to my interest in booting Linux on a system with 16 MB memory[0], I
have been reading a bit about the kernel's mem

I'm pretty sure the option is HIGHMEM -- grepping a 2.6.18 config file that I used to build a working kernel (that allows the
ability to access more than 885M of RAM) finds
# CONFIG_NOHIGHMEM is not set
CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y
# CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G is not set
CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y
hth,
I remember an old option in kernel that asked you which size of ram you
think to be used. This option seems to have disappeared now.
If you want a 2.6.11 kernel, try to compile the kernel and search for
such an option...
