A lot of earlier linux books indicate that the kernel does not 
properly understand memory greater than 64 megs unless you add a 
memory size statement to lilo or at a boot prompt. I am running 
Mandrake 7 on one machine with 320 megs of memory. Using the kde 
system info (memory) panel it gives what appears to be inconsistent 
and unreliable reports of the amounts of free, shared, and buffer 
memory on the machine. Does this reflect the need to have such a 
memory statement in lilo with Mandrake 7 or is it more likely 
something else (such as a bug in the memory info program) ?
