You do mem=?? where ?? is the amount of RAM in your system. 96m, 128m,
256m, 1gb, whatever. You could also do mem=8m which would mean the
system only uses the first 8 megs of RAM. Linus and others do this to
test low memory situations. Just dont say mem=128m when you have 64m
(or 8mb). Things

Install the doc-linux-text package, if you haven't already, and read
/usr/doc/HOW

The mem=??? is not needed in 2.1.1xx kernels.

Linux, because I'd like to *get there* today

I have a question regarding RAM, does linux recognize anything over 64M
of ram? I have 128M on my machine and this is what top reports...
CPU states: 0.5% user, 1.1% system, 0.0% nice, 98.5% idle
Mem: 63344K av, 62092K used, 1252K free, 32960K shrd, 17160K buff
Swap: 130748K av, 1416K
Christopher, I think the RAM/swap idea is a bad one. More productive
would be making your swap partition at least 128mb. Then you can swap
all of your memory. (Although why you are swapping on 128mb is beyond
me). Also the 2.1.x series of kernels has done a LOT of work on large
mem handling. T
