Here's my lilo.conf file, for a system with 128 Mbyte of RAM.  The append
line is what you really need - the quotes and the leading space are
important. 


boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.32
	label=new
	root=/dev/hda1
	append=" mem=128m"
	read-only

Hope this fixes your problem.
