Glad to be of help.
You know when you boot and you get the LILO prompt. You can add things like
'mem=128M' etc to your choice. e.g. If you were booting linux, and it had
the assignment 'lin', you would type 'lin mem=128M'. The append in the
lilo.conf just removes the need to keep typeing in the 'mem=128M' when you
boot.
If it's not clear enough there do a 'man lilo.conf' which explains it
better, or if you have SuSE read the manual as I think they explain it quite
well.
