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.
 
play with the numbers some.
