[ltp] can't detect all 256 MB of RAM (RH 6.2, 2.2.14 on 770X)

[Jake Roersma]

Specifying more memory than you actaully have will cause the kernel to bomb
out outputting an oops error.. So when you are toying with
append="mem=FOO", make sure you've got a back up kernel image with no
memory specifed in lilo.conf.. Otherwise you'll have to hunt down that boot
disk you can never seem to find..
