Unhappy


I'm not able to get a 2.2 kernel to recognize more than 64MB of RAM. I have 192MB and have tried adding the append in the lilo.conf file, but still no luck. Is there a certain place in the file that i am to place the append=mem=192mb, Or is there another way of doing this altogether? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The append option isn't (suposidly) needed in any kernel after 2.0, dunno if it was a typo but your mem line in lilo.conf should be
Code:
append = "mem=192M"
What type of system you running? Whats reported by
Code:
cat /proc/meminfo
Also what kernel are you running?

Can't offer any suggestions off the top of my head but give me more details and i'll have a think!

cheers.

Jamie...
