I believe it should be
mem=256M
Either way, try something like
append="hdd=ide-scsi,mem=256M"
and rerun /sbin/lilo
Do you definately need the "hdd=ide-scsi" comment?

Subject: [newbie] Missing Ram -- Append?
I have 256mb of ram, but linux only shows 64. I got a not from someone
telling me to add the line:
apppend="mem=256"
to my lilo.conf file. The probelm is, there is already one there for
something else. How do I combine the two(lilo won't run until there's only
one)?
The I tried to put:
append="hdd=ide-scsi mem=256"
I saw the hdd-ide-scsi come up when booting, but a few lines after that my
computer froze with the message:
kernal panic: kmem_cache_sizes_init: Error creating caches
In Swappertask = not syncing
Good thing I had a boot disk...
Anyone have any ideas?
