make it work with 8 MB ram

I've tried to make the kickstart-from-floppy installation work with 8 MB RAM.
 
There are who says it has seen it working before, but I haven't been able to do it. I've reduced the size of the kernel taking out of it all the drivers and modules I don't need. I've also used the ramdisk_size parameter, but it didn´t work either. It always produce the same error: install exited abnormally -- received signal 9. It's is lack of RAM or swap space I've been informed. 128 MB swap space it's not that small.
 
There are others who say kickstart only works with a minimum of 12MB RAM.
In fact, when I add some RAM (32) and I set the ramdisk_size parameter to 12, kickstart installation works alright.
 
Does anyone have the solution? (not the -I've seen it before-)
 
Thanks in advance to all those interested in the subject.
