To install Linux I had to remove one piece of memory, doesn't matter which one or in which of the two slots it is. With two it never gets to the live session. I installed Linux with one, then put the second one in again, but again it won't boot. Both are from Samsung. 2GB 2Rx8 PC2 6400s 666 12 E3, but have different ID numbers. Memory tests on Windows and from the Linux DVD (Memtest86) reveal no errors. Both memory pieces are listed with the correct numbers.
Is there a way to generate a dmesg for the failing boot attempt that I can read after I take out the second memory piece and boot again ? Or does someone have another idea? After a few hours searching I am about ready to give up.
