Well, one thing you can try is booting with a "mem=64M" option. With LILO, you hit shift to get the prompt, then do "linux mem=64M" (replace linux with whatever you named that boot option). This will cause Linux to ignore what the motherboard tells it, and just go ahead and use 64MB of memory. If the memory is really there, this will work. If not, you almost certainly won't be able to boot. You definitely will run into problems at some point. (I don't *think* this would cause filesystem damage, but I'd still suggest backing things up first...)
