Anyways I have always wondered why that a SuSE user doesn't need an append line in LILO to use more than 64 Megs. I have brought it up before, and people either don't know or ask if I use a developers kernel or something. Which I don't and I have 128Megs, never had my SuSE have a problem with seeing and useing that much memory.
# LILO Konfigurations-Datei # Start LILO global Section append="auto" boot=/dev/sda #compact # faster, but won't work on all systems. linear read-only prompt timeout=100 vga = 9 # force sane state ramdisk = 0 # paranoia setting # End LILO global section # Linux bootable partition config begins image = /vmlinuz root = /dev/sda1 label = linux # Linux bootable partition config ends See above 'append' statement. This is why I don't have to append="mem=80". It is the default when you install the system. Without it, nothing above 64MB will be recognized. True in any dist. of Linux with lilo. -------------------------------------------- Brad Shelton bshelton@ole.net On Line Exchange <A HREF="http://ole.net"><A HREF="http://ole.net</A">http://ole.net</A</A>> Detroit News <A HREF="http://detnews.com"><A HREF="http://detnews.com</A">http://detnews.com</A</A>> - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
