Hi all,
I`m using mandrake 7.1 and it only sees 64 of my 128 of ram. I went to
mandrakeuser.org and found the following - edit /boot/grub/menu.1st as root then
"find" kernel (hd0,5)/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda6. I`m supposed to append mem=128 to the
end of that line.I`m using pico to edit the file. Now then ctrl-W does not work. It
asks what file so I tell it the above and it says not found. So what am I looking for
? Typing pico /boot/grub/menu.1st helps me make a file entittled boot. Nothing
more.And then promptly places it in my home root directory. So how do I get to the
actual file linux uses to boot and append to it ? I need very explicit instructions.
Obviously I`m missing something here.
Thank you, Chronos.
