Could you please post the output of 
Code:
grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo

when running this image and in case it shows just 1 GB RAM if possible also the output from longsleep's minimal Arch image?

Sure, I'll try and do this at some point today.

However, I can tell you that htop on the Xfce4 image shows slightly less than 1GiB free, so therefore it seems to think it's a 1GiB model (some allocated for display); but will give you the exact output later...

Ok, Xfce4 ArchLinux output confirms 1 GiB accessible only:

Code:
MemTotal:        1002164 kB

Will try to do the minimal ArchLinux image later as need to reflash the sd card...
