=================================
At the boot prompt try typing "linux mem=192M" w/o the quotes. If the works,
and your system now sees all of your RAM, edit /etc/lilo.conf add
append="mem=192M" (use quotes this time)
That will boot you with all of your RAM recognized.
Not sure about your other problem, sorry...
HTH,
Mike
