Have you tried taking the original memory out and booting with just the
new memory? Perhaps your new stick of memory is bad or not compatible.
What type of memory are we talking here, dimms, simms? What amount of
memory are you trying to put in? Have you appended the amount in lilo?
Sometimes if you add, say, 128 mb in lilo it will freak out the kernel
because part of the first mb is being used. In that case you need to
append 127 mb.
