Because you didn't tell it there's more. Try a "mem" line at the boot prompt, or add one to your append line in /etc/lilo.conf (e.g. `append="mem=96M"' in /etc/lilo.conf ...) -- Nathan Norman MidcoNet 410 South Phillips Avenue Sioux Falls, SD mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.midco.net finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for PGP Key: (0xA33B86E9)
