I was wondering the same thing myself last night actually...

I just pulled that line, and it now works.  Which is weird -- I have two
other 5.1 machines that I have specified MAXMEM in, without any troubles.
It's also strange that this would only be brought out with ACPI...?

Anyhow, it's working for me now.  If anyone feels like further debugging,
I'm all game.
