sorry for the long message.  i can include any config files
etc... here's the problem below:

i am using 3.6.3 and am having some troubles re-deploying
a captured image.  i am able to si_prepareclient (btw, without
the my-modules as it's not an option in 3.6.3), run getimage,
and set everything else up (more or less).

i boot the system (thanks to the list for the SLES9 workaround
of modprobing the af_packet to solve the tg3 issue of not
being able to run the dhclient on the image box) but for
some reason, when making the partitioning and setting up the
blocks/inodes, it runs out of memory after the first few
partitions.

the specs of the system are:

single p4 xeon HT @ 2.8GHz.
4GB ram
3x72GB scsi drives with a IBM SeveRAID6i card
RAID5 with ~140GB formatted space.

the partitioning schema is

/boot           - 100M  /dev/sda1
swap            - 2G    /dev/sda2
/               - 8G    /dev/sda3
---             extnd   /dev/sda4
/var            - 4G    /dev/sda5
/tftpboot       - 10G   /dev/sda6
/home           - 40G   /dev/sda7
/usr            - 20G   /dev/sda8
/opt            - ~50G  /dev/sda9

i thought maybe it was the jackass partitioning schema,
so i tried the same thing with a single partition but
it runs out of memory at a similar spot.

i have tried a /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default with values
of 80000 / 100000 / 3000000 etc.. (i.e. increasing the ramdisk
size) but it simply runs out of memory at the various points.

any help would be appreciated.
