Change /etc/lilo.conf to look something like this.
boot = /dev/hda
vga = 5
read-only
prompt
timeout = 30
image = /boot/vmlinuz
label = linux
root = /dev/hda1
initrd = /boot/initrd
append = "mem=256M"
image = /boot/vmlinuz.suse
label = suse
root = /dev/hda1
initrd = /boot/initrd.suse
append = "mem=256M
Save the file and type
lilo
{You can only do this as root}
Reboot and enjoy.
