I appended the ram amount in lilo.conf to reflect 256megs
and it boots normal now.
Incidentely Mandrake sees the Athlon processor and
all the hardware including udma 66 hardrive. This thing is working
perfectly and is sooooo fast.
Now if I can just figure out why tkdesk keeps telling
me to put the environment path etc etc.....
Thanks for the help gentlemen Paul
