I recently upgraded my news server (a Linux-2.0.18 box running inn1.4unoff4)
from 64MB to 128MB of RAM.  BIOS counts the new RAM just fine, but Linux
still insists that I have only 64MB.  What gives?

The solution: you (the user) tells the kernel exactly how much memory you
actually have. Easiest way if you're using LILO is to add the line:

mem=128M

to your lilo.conf file and rerun lilo.

Hope this helps,

I think you mean

append="mem=128M"

or entering mem=128M at the actual lilo bootprompt after whatever your kernel
image label is.
