This would have to be on the syslinux splash screen? AFAIK, with the 1GB bug, you don't really seen anything but that? Of course, the errata site *is* listed in the installation instructions, easily accessible on the CD, but who would think to look there ;-). Maybe the syslinux boot screen should tell the user to read the docs if anything goes wrong? Or is it wrong to expect a user to read instructions nowadays?
