I again refer people to www.lowendmac.com
"RAM: 32 MB, expandable to 384 MB* using two DIMM sockets (256 MB on top,
128 MB on the botton), uses same SDRAM SO-DIMM as PowerBook G3, top DIMM
socket accepts 2" DIMM, bottom socket takes 1.5" DIMM.
* The exact amount a Rev. A-D iMac can be upgraded varies from unit to
unit. We have field reports of some models accepting 256 MB modules in both
memory socket and reaching 512 MB -- and other reports of early iMacs that
won't work at all with 256 MB modules. There appears to be no way to know
in advance whether a particular iMac will work with a certain sized memory
module."
I stand by my statement that Rev. A models with 2MB VRAM will not go above
128MB.
"Mac OS X
If you have a hard drive over 8 GB in size, you must partition it, and the
partition containing OS X must be completely within the first 8 GB of space
or you will not be able to run OS X.
Non-Apple upgrades and peripherals (such as unsupported USB devices,
replacement drives, and third-party memory) may cause problems when
installing or booting into Mac OS X.
Be sure to read and follow Apple's "Read Before You Install" install
instructions to increase the likelihood of getting OS X installed and
running on the first try."
