In LILO, it goes in the global section as
append="mem=96M"
You can, and probably should, test it first by pressing the tab key during
bootup and, at the prompt, type:
linux append="mem=96M"
then Enter and see what is detected. I had a P100/96M machine that had the
same behavior; this trick fixed it, but it _should_ not be necessary with
modern kernels.
