Does this mean remap memory to 4GB + or remap high memory to low memory space. I think I have been misunderstanding it.

It remaps low memory above 4GB. The hardware feature is designed to recover memory covered by pci devices.
The option in linuxbios is a debugging option to make certain kernels, and kernel modules can handle > 4GB of ram.
I have not seen a problem with it set either way.
And yes you were looking at it backwards my apologies for not replying sooner, it's been a busy day.

even on 2.4.19? because the 2.4.19 output I've seen indicates it is extremely confused.
