Workaround:

Remove the laptop drive and place it in a machine with adequate memory, then 
install and don't forget to _add_ the PCMCIA rpm afterward.

Or, boot from a network-enabled floppy, hand-format the laptop drive and copy 
the system from another machine using the techniques similar to upgrading to 
a larger hard drive. Then fix lilo.conf, fstab by hand and install teh 
bootloader code.

Neither easy, both will work.
