>Description:
	Neither the kernel config files as e.g. GENERIC nor 
options(4) tell what unit the value should be given in (Bytes, kBytes, MB?)
The same applies for REALBASEMEM (here kB could perhaps be guessed).

>How-To-Repeat:

less sys/arch/i386/generic
man 4 options

I guess that this might be kilobyte from a comment in i386/locore.s

It might be, that if you have e.g. 16MB in the computer, this value can
be at max 15MB, as 1MB is reserved for bios. Dunno. At least it seems to work
here.
