Fred,
I've been told it should look more like this
append="mem=191M hdc=scsi-ide"
with only a space separating the 191M and the hdc=
but check your man pages to be certain also be certain to make your changes as
root and close the file from your editor (this burned me for about a week -
tried to save me some time when trying different options) and rerun lilo.
caio,
