Not willing to do the math at the moment, but is it a rounding issue?
Are memory stick gigabytes the same as disk gigabytes?  Is your swap
space sufficiently large enough to avoid the difference?  (I recall
reading it needed to be at least as large as your RAM, but not how much
more would be a good idea.)  Is your swap space active and is the kernel
set to use it?
