You might try one other variation:
linux mem=1008M at 16M
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 at 0 mem=1023M at 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.
