Spotted this over at the TBJ forums. A team of guys managed to do a hack, so that, when the patch is applied, it trickes BeOS into thinking you only have 64MB of RAM.

It's not ideal I know, but for now, for those which have more than 1GB of RAM, it could be a (temporary) solution. Though... I have to ask, wouldn't it be better to remove half of the RAM (in case you have 1GB)? A noteworthy effort still of course.

It will be up to the end-user if they prefer to keep all of their RAM and have BeOS only 64MB or take enough so that BeOS boots and uses it fully. You can download the beta patch from TBJ's mirror.
