Re: /etc/lilo.conf not taking my append line

1997-12-18 Thread dA' Phucilage Phactory
 I recently upgraded to 128M ram from 32M ram. If I type
 Linux mem=128m
 then the memory is recognized (as indicated by top). However, if I add
 an append line to my /etc/lilo.conf as shown below, my machine boots
 with only 64M available, which is more than 32M, but not accurate.
 
this is what i use, obviously change 80 to 128, and the others as well =\.


append=mem=80M
boot=/dev/hda
root=/dev/hda1
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
image=/vmlinuzd
label=Lino
read-only

/etc/lilo.conf not taking my append line

1997-12-17 Thread Terrence Brannon

I am using debian 1.3.1.

I recently upgraded to 128M ram from 32M ram. If I type
Linux mem=128m
then the memory is recognized (as indicated by top). However, if I add
an append line to my /etc/lilo.conf as shown below, my machine boots
with only 64M available, which is more than 32M, but not accurate.

boot=/dev/hda2
root=/dev/hda2
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
append = mem=128m
read-only


Any ideas?

Id suggest putting the append line in front of any image tag.
