I think 2.0.36 was the first stable kernel to recognize more than 64M automatically. Try it without the append= line. My systems recognizes 256M without the append= line in lilo.conf. Here are the first few lines from dmesg:
>>Memory: sized by int13 0e801h Console: 16 point font, 400 scans Console: colour VGA+ 80x25, 1 virtual console (max 63) pcibios_init : BIOS32 Service Directory structure at 0x000fdb60 pcibios_init : BIOS32 Service Directory entry at 0xfdb70 pcibios_init : PCI BIOS revision 2.10 entry at 0xfdb91 Probing PCI hardware. Calibrating delay loop.. ok - 400.59 BogoMIPS >>Memory: 256984k/262144k available (816k kernel code, 384k reserved, 3960k >>data) If it doesn't work I can't offer any other suggestions.
