Hi
It only hangs when I use "linux mem=128" at the lilo prompt. After I added
the append mem=128 to the lilo.conf file in the 2.2.9-27mdk kernel section
it boots fine but still does not detect any more than 65 meg. And no I am
not over clocking I have a genuine Intel PII 400 and 128 meg of ram.
Since posting my this list I have re-installed from the cd-rom and applied
the updated. This has made no difference. It still hangs or not detect the
ram above 65 meg.
TIA
Stephan.
