Hello again;
I've tried everything you said but without success.
Here is the lilo.conf again.
boot=/dev/hda5
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
linear
timeout=50
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.5-15
label=linux
root=/dev/hda5
read-only
append="mem=128M"
other=/dev/hda1
label=dos
table=/dev/hda
I've tested:
append = "mem=128M"
append="mem=128m"
append = "mem=127M"
append="mem=128M"
I've always run /sbin/lilo -v after editing lilo.conf,
but what "free" or "top" reports remains unchanged, as
if it is useless to modify the lilo.conf ...
During start up, the bios reports 131072 Kbytes
The motherboard is: BOARD ABIT BH6 440BX Pentium II AGD
The RAM is: Lond Dimm 128M SDRAM 100MHz C/EPROM
Windows 95 detects 128M of RAM perfectly.
The kernel I have installed is 2.2.5-15, and RedHat 6.0
Thank you very much for your attention.
