  Thanks to the many of you who offered help when I couldn't get my Linux
to boot after I added 16 megs of ram for a total of 32...  I tried 
everything including striping all but the necessary hardware...  I finally
got bored and just started with the bios settings one at a time... I found
it though... Apparently I can't have the machine remap unused shadow ram.
I verified it by running a number of different tests, and the all backed it
up,  when I remap the ram it locks when it goes to display how much memory
is available...  Strange?

Thanks again.
Rob
