>From memory (ie not reliable) the parameter PHYSICALPAGES now gets
updated by AUTOGEN, and various things follow it. In the dim and
distant past, PHYSICALPAGES did not always get updated by AUTOGEN,
which meant that certain system parameters which are affected when the
amount of physical memory changes may have been set suboptimally for a
configuration which has had memory added or removed.

Or something like that. Anyway, you're good to go. Have fun!
