I just upgraded the RAM memory in my machine to 196mb. Mandrake7.0 is only recognizing 64mb. What can I do to get Linux to see all the RAM memory?

I forget the exact syntax, but something like

append="MEM=192M"

or something in your lilo.conf. Then re-run lilo

I think MEM should be lower case:

append="mem=196M"

No. 9 Kill is right, it should go right under the root filesystem entry in the global setting section of your lilo.conf file.

After editing it, remember to run /sbin/lilo to make sure it works correctly and update lilo so it uses that when you reboot.
