        A friend here also had the same problem, his 128MB being detected
as 13MB by default. He had AMD k6 with ASUS(?) mobo. We tried everything
from changing the RAM to even harddisk (It aborted linux installation with
signals 9 through 11 when tried with mem=128M).
        Finally when we changed the mobo, the problem got corrected
automatically. So the problem was not with lilo at all atleast in that
case.
