[ltp] my 600 saga continued

[Bob Barrett]

When the TP starts up, the upper left
corner of the screen shows the memory
installed in "K"'s. Whatever that number is,
is what you should use and include the "K".
For instance, the TP shows 238000K on boot,
just put that exact number (with the "K")
in the lilo.conf file.
