Hi,

Please don't post HTML messages to this list - not everyone can read them! :( 
- Also you should try to use a more 'informative' subject line that just "SOS"
:)

You may be able to compile a kernel with MAXMEM set to 10Mb, this might
work... - I'm not too sure how you would be able to create a boot/install disk
with this kernel instead of the normal one, someone else may be able to help
with that...

-Kp
