Hopefully someone here has seen something like the problem
I'm having.
In a moment of weakness my employer bought a cheapo 450MHz PIII
system ( A Fry's special for those that might know what that means).
It ran NT until this week when I wiped it and installed Linux.
Unfortunately Linux can see only 64 of the 128Megs of memory. I've
tried:
1) variations of append = "mem=128M" in lilo.conf to no effect.
2) linux mem=128M at the LILO prompt. kernel panic on boot.
3) switch the DIMM from slot to slot. also no different.
4) try a known to be good DIMM from another system with 1-3 above.
no difference.
5) twiddling BIOS settings. also no effect.
I can't find any marking on the motherboard to identify the maker.
( I wouldn't admit to making it either) It has a SiS chipset of
some sort, but nothing else identifiable.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
~Rob
