I had a similar problem and here are a instructions on how TWO DIFFERENT
ways to do the same thing from people who helped me:
Edit the file "lilo.conf" in the /etc drawer and look for a line containing
"append", and change it to append="mem=192M". After that you have to execute
"lilo -v" in a shell as root.
Either go through drakconf on the desktop and then to linuxconf or type
linuxconf as superuser in a terminal, then click on boot mode, LILO
defaults, extra options, and at 'boot options' put 'mem=192M' without
the quotes. Click on 'accept', 'yes' to activate, and 'quit' till you
get out. If there are any errors and you are asked if you want to see
the log files, say no. You will have to reboot to activate the change.
Good luck,
Aaron

Subject: [newbie] Memory Question
Hi
Ive got a problem with linux mandrake 7.0, it only
detects 64MB of my system memory and I have 192MB.
In linux mandrake 6.1 it worked just fine (it found
192MB).
My systemm spec is:
ABIT BH6 v1.01
128MB SDRAM PC100 from Mitsubishi
64MB SDRAM PC100 (unknown)
What can I do to correct this problem ?
