If you are running with an AMD CPU, then make sure you have
append="mem=nopentium" in your lilo.conf. (Or the equivalent if you
use a different boot loader. If have something like the following:
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
append="mem=nopentium"
This works around an Athlon/AGP bug ...
If you have an Intel CPU then ignore this ...
