I now have this line in /boot/grub/menu.lst:
# kopt=root=UUID=[some stuff] memmap=140M$580M memmap=140M$1600M ro
I've added two memmap options to the end. The pseudo-syntax is [how much][unit]$[where][unit]. So I'm sitting on 140 megs starting at 580 megs and also 140 megs starting at 1600 megs.
run 'sudo grub-update' to apply the changes after editing menu.lst. 'free -m' will now report a missing ~280MB upon reboot.
Now the laptop and I have something on common - holes in our memory ;)
