Description ldunaway 1999-11-18 21:37:21 UTC
When I added append="mem=130495K" (which worked in my 6.0) to lilo.conf; it
was ignored.

I tried it on the lilo boot prompt and got "invalid number"

What's up??????????????

ps: 128M fails the same way

Add details for field.Required

Some fields are only required if other fields have certain values.
This patch adds some additional error messaging to inform the user
why these fields were necessary.
