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.
