I had the same problem when using loadlin on a laptop (didn't have a floppy drive). In the part where setup asks you to specify your RAM, I left it at 16k, even though I had 40k. After I did this, it loaded just fine. However, your email said it was trying to load the ramdisk off of the nfs server? I thought the ramdisk was always local, then it pulls the images from the nfs?

If you are doing the install w/ YaST2 then it might just be too big for all that overhead. YaST2 requires a minimum of 48M to do the install.
