Hi Vulcan
This experiment which I did was a truly try and error procedure.
Nearly 10 times a day I used to change something in LILO and reboot to see
if my PC hangs. I found this solution for my problem, but I m not sure
about how this works.
Just open lilo.conf and add append = "mem=60m" somewhere under
label=linux..
Hope this works for u -:)
