Hi.
I have been trying to install linux 7.0 unsuccessfully. This is my problem:
I only had 16 meg of RAM on my system for windows, I removed all the
RAM modules and installed a new 64meg RAM module.
I tried installing linux, at the beginning the installation screen said that
I had low memory, so it turned swapping on immediately.
Linux installed ok except that it was awfully slow, then it started
Giving me a bunch of errors when trying to open any windows(i.e. terminal).
When I typed free, it said that only 13 megs total memory are recognized.
I was trying to change my lilo.conf file, but any attempt to open a window
Fails due to low memory. I tried ctr-alt-backspace to kill X, but it
Comes back immediately and won't let me go to text mode so I could
Change lilo.conf to add: append = "mem=64M"
How can I:
Stop X temporarily without it coming back immediately when I kill it.
Force linux to recognize my 64 megs at startup. (bios sees 64 megs ok)
Prevent X from starting automatically at startup.
Any hints will be appreciated.
