What's this RAM Limiter? ( hide )

In short, if your computer has too much RAM installed, BeOS will crash.

R5.0.3 has a maximum of around 1024mb.
R5.0.3+BONE and R5.1d0 Dano/Exp have a maxium of around 768mb.
These maximums are further reduced by the amount of your video cards memory.

In order to work around this, a RAM Limiter patch has been created. It will trick BeOS into seeing only a portion of your total RAM, hence "Viewable RAM".

Basic formula for estimating your systems viewable RAM:

	5.0.3:	1152mb - video card memory
	5+BONE:	896mb  - video card memory
	5.1d0:	896mb  - vidie card memory
