Login as root in kde
click on your home directory and use the up arrow a couple times
to get to a folder called
etc
Open it with a click and find lilo.conf
click on lilo.conf and in the section on linux add the line
append = "mem=255M"
and yes, the quotes belong there...
quit the text editor, saving as you do, and close the window
now bring up Konsole and type this command line
/sbin/lilo
Your memory will be recognized on your next boot--unless you tell
lilo otherwise it will depend on what the BIOS reports.
