One reason this has been showing up alot recently is the limit is smaller then
before.  Someone found a bios that didn't like the old max kernel size.  So,
the size was reduced in lilo.  Then, a little while later the size was reduced
in the kernel build.  

This bit me when I installed Redhat 6.0 and I couldn't even install a kernel
version 2.2.x that I had previously built and installed.
