Hi,

I want use the old type of shared memory on my embedded system running the
miniRTL (kernel 2.2.14 rtlv2.3).  I have 128MBytes of memory and I have
added the statement:

append="mem=125M"

to the linux.cfg file on the disk.  



Here is my linux.cfg file:

.\zimage
append="mem=125M"
append=load_ramdisk=1 
initrd=root.rtl 
initrd_archive=minix 
ramdisk_size=50000 
root=/dev/ram0 
boot=/dev/hda1,msdos 
RTL=etc,sshd,log,local,modules,thttpd
RTLPATH=/linux/



The problem is that I do not see the memory getting set aside when I do a
more on /proc/meminfo.   Consequently, I get a Segmentation Fault when I
insert the module and there are any statements that try and access any
shared memory variables. 

Can I not use this type of shared memory anymore ?

I'm I doing something stupid and I need enlightenment?

Thanks in advance --
