Edit /etc/X11/config (or whatever that file is called...I don't have
access to my box right now). You'll see lines like:
run-xdm
run-kdm
just comment out one of them, or change it to:
dont-run-xdm

Probably not. Add the memory, and if linux doesn't see it, then there's a
kernel parameter that needs to be passed in from LILO. I've never needed
to use it, so I don't know the specifics.
