You might try one other variation:
 
 
I seem to recall having to do that with a Proliant 2500R with a gig of memory.  What Proliant are you using?

Thomas,

I appear to be dealing with a different issue on my Proliants -- if I boot from the install CD with:
   linux mem=exactmap mem=640k@0 mem=1023M@1M
the boot actually dies even earlier -- on "loading linux" rather than on "loading the CCISS drivers". 

However, the fact that others are having success with the Proliant for RHL9 and FC1 gives me hope.  Maybe I just need to play with my firmware settings -- what worked for me on RHL7.1 may not be working for later versions.  The Proliant certainly gives you ENOUGH firmware settings to play with :-).

Thanks for the tip.

Marty

Yeah, I had a bit of trouble after 7.x too.  I think that 
there was some
memory line that I used for 8.0 and 9, but IIRC, FC1 worked 
fine for me.
