As additional information from my log files regarding the problem I'm
having in adding an additional 16 meg, this is what is shown:
May 4 20:58:25 shell kernel: Memory: 31204k/32768k available (736k
kernel code, 384k reserved, 444k data)
which shows that the 32meg was noticed by linux, and the following shows
the errors which I was getting on my local tty:
