PC freezes on boot with kernel 2.2.13. As its a compaq pc its necessary to
put the line append="mem=112M" in lilo.conf to make it see more than 16M.
This leads to freeze, if mem written is greater than 99M- append="mem=100M"
freezes, append="mem=99M" works. Compaq Prosignia 300- Bios E15 8/17/99.
This is new for kernel 2.2.13, 2.2.12 works without that behavior.
memory, compaq lilo.conf mem=xxxM
