Hello,
I ask the user group once about putting
Linux on a Compaq server with 458 mem of memory. This is what I did to
finally get Linux on this server.
at the boot prompt I type:
Linux append mem=exactmap mem=0x9000@0 mem 0x1b800000
once installed, I added this to my /etc/lilo.conf
file
append="mem=exactmap mem=0x9000@0 mem=0x1b800000"
re-rean lilo
reboot
now the computer see 450 meg of memory.
working on the rest.
I found this out by reading http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36940
play with the numbers some.
