Hi Adam,

OK if the APPEND=mem line is exactly the same in lilo.conf as what I specified earlier I would try to re-run lilo and see what happens, but be warned that this may cause a problem because of boot magic (a program that I have no experience of myself). Also could someone confirm that when you edit the lilo.conf in Yast that yast re-runs lilo for you?
Following on from the message from steve I ran YAST and specified lilo to run from /boot. It does run lilo and when I rebooted BINGO 128Mb. Obviously I had specified incorrectly when I amended YAST to include mem=128M.
The box is somewhat faster now!!
Many thanks all for the help, it has been much appreciated
