Re: Problem after memory upgrade

[Pedro Quaresma <quaresma@hilbert.mat.uc.pt>]

   Hi,

   I just upgraded my memory from 32Mb to 128Mb.
   When I type 'free', linux seems to detect only 64Mb...

   do you know where it can come from ?

   thanx for help


If you use lilo you can do the following

boot=/dev/hda2
root=/dev/hda2
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
  append="mem=128M" <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
  label=Linux
  read-only
other=/dev/hda1
  label=dos
  table=/dev/hda

The line append="mem=128M", its the important one.

    At\'e breve
