telling linux how much memory in your TP

You need to edit lilo.conf and put in a line like this:

	append="mem=319M"

Then run lilo and reboot.  The BIOS uses the top meg itself so you
mustn't tell Linux to use it.  Here's my lilo.conf as an example.  I
have 128M.

boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
image=/boot/vmlinuz
	label=l
	root=/dev/hda2
	read-only
	append="mem=127M"
image=/boot/vmlinuz.old
	label=old
	root=/dev/hda2
	read-only
	append="mem=127M"
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.36-0.7
	label=redhat
	root=/dev/hda2
	read-only
other=/dev/hda1
	label=w
	table=/dev/hda
