	nope.... possibly youll have to put an append statement in your lilo
(I cant remember the exact statement offhand, anyone?) in case Linux falsely
detects the amount of ram (broken BIOSes?), and you might wanna rethink your
swap disk size, but there is nothing really special about adding ram to a
linux box.

	Subject:	[plug] Adding memory to Linux systems

	Is there anything I need to do, if I add memory to my RH7.1 system?
	I have 128Mb of ram now, but with memory being so cheap, I thought I
would 
	bring it up to 256Mb.
	Is a kernel rebuild required, or recommended ?

	Phil
