The quotes only matter within lilo.conf (The "append =" likes the
quotes, the kernel never sees them) - in fact, using the quotes on the
kernel cmdline at boot time isn't going to work.
lilo> linux mem=64M
That is the syntax you should use (meaning, at the lilo prompt, enter
"linux mem=64M" without the quotes, where "linux" is the label used to
identify your kernel in your lilo.conf - hit your tab key to list all of
the available lilo labels to boot to).
HOWEVER, this will not solve your problem. The problem you are having is
with HIGHMEM - your kernel is not built to support over 960M of memory.
You must recompile your kernel or find a vendor supported kernel built
with CONFIG_HIGHMEM enabled.
For future reference, I much prefer grub to lilo.
As for the Adaptec 1742 controller, yes, it is supported. From memory, I
recall that being a EISA version of the 1542. That's a bit old now. but
definitely supported.
