Mark! No I don't have it in the wrong place! I've written the lilo.conf file from scratch so many times for so many different Linux dist's on so many different boxes that I know by experience. The append="mem128M" is 'also' where you got it in my file (put there by YaST), but it didn't work so I put it under the label line like I usually do, and it still doesn't work.

Lilo is on the boot partition and still Linux only registers 64 RAM which is awful. This is kernel 2.2.16.
You have it in the wrong place. Do it like this.
# LILO Konfigurations-Datei # Start LILO global Section # If you want to prevent console users to boot with init=/bin/bash, # restrict usage of boot params by setting a passwd and using the option # restricted. #password=bootpwd #restricted append="mem=128m" boot=/dev/hda #compact # faster, but won't work on all systems. linear vga=normal read-only prompt timeout=100 # End LILO global Section # image = /boot/vmlinuz root = /dev/hda5 label = linux # other = /dev/sda1 label = win map-drive = 0x80 to = 0x81 map-drive = 0x81 to = 0x80 table = /dev/sda
