You may want to try it without further options first. Sometimes it works?!

If not (check with "free"), append "mem=128" or whatever to your boot
procedure. For example (with lilo): "linux mem=128". You don't want to type
this everytime, so you use append=128M in /etc/lilo.conf.

See /usr/doc/HOWTO/BootPrompt-HOWTO.gz
