Hmm. Try:
boot: bz2bzImage mem=16M in case it is misdetecting the memory. Or look at the BIOS settings for holes, shadow ram, etc. There is something weird here, because after the kernel is decompressed, the setup.S or whatever is calling the decompression piece *again*... after the "Ok, booting the kernel." message, you should never see "bzip2 Uncom- pressing Linux... a" again, that part has been completed. I'll have to look at the setup.S or whatever, but, there is the catch that that part is more abstruse... -Tom On Wed, 22 May 2002, Jorge Buchmann wrote: > Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 21:18:36 -0300 > From: Jorge Buchmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [tomsrtbt] Out of memory > > > Hi, I just d/l last version of tomsrtbt 2.0.103.tar.gz > > I'm trying to boot with this floppy one AMD 486 DX4-100 with 32 MB of RAM, no HDD, >VGA 2MB and a 3Com EtherLink III 10Mb (ISA). > > My problem is when booting ... > > bzip2 Uncompressing Linux... aaabfff > Ok, booting the kernel. > > bzip2 Uncompressing Linux... a > > Out of memory > > I read that 8Mb was Ok for booting, or I think I read it. > > Any hint will be really appreciated. > > Thanks > > -- > , , > / \ | Jorge D.
