First, PLEASE lose the HTML. It makes your messages hard to read and
it's a waste of bandwidth.
Second, add the following to your /etc/lilo.conf file "append
'mem=128mb'" (minus double-quotes.) That should do it. Also, before
you do that, you might want to check the BIOS setup and see that it's
not got the "memory hole at 16 megs" or something about using OS/2 or
similar O/S set to "on."
