I upgraded from 64M to 96M of RAM.
beetle % cat /etc/lilo.conf
boot=/dev/sdb3
root=/dev/sdb3
# Generated by liloconfig
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
append = "mem=96M"
read-only
beetle # dmesg | grep Memory
Memory: 63084k/65536k available (836k kernel code, 384k reserved, 1232k
data)
beetle % cat /proc/meminfo
total: used: free: shared: buffers: cached:

What gives? I *did* reboot. I did run the BIOS config utility. During
bootup I can see 96M. FWIW, I use System Commander. Get into LILO from
there and bootup.
I am guessing that LILO is not passing the append string to the kernel.
Would appreciate help.
Thaths
