I had a box running RH 7.2 fine.  The only "quirk" that the box had was
that I had to add mem=88M in order to get it to see all the memory in
the box.  I had to use the mem=88M parameter even during installation of
RH 7.2 because otherwise it would say something to the effect that there
was not enough memory to perform the installation and quit.  However,
with mem=88M, the box installed RH 7.2 and ran great.

Now I am trying to install RH 7.3 on the same box.  If I try to perform
a simple installation without the mem=88M parameter, I get a message
saying not enough memory to install RH.  If I use mem=88M (I tried this
with 64M and 32 M also), then, when the box tries to load the kernel
from the boot floppy, I get the floppy message and a kernel panic:

EXT2-FS:  unable to read super block
Cramfs:  wrong magic
FAT:  Unable to read boot sector
Isofs_read_super:  bread failed, dev=09:00 iso blknum=16,block=32
Kernel panic:  VFS unable to mount root fs on 09:00


Any ideas why RH 7.2 installs fine on the box but not 7.3?

Thanks in advance for any help,
--Moby
