I have an 800MHz Athlon SIS board with 128MB memory.  The only way I could 
install RH 7.2 was to start the install with "Linux mem=64m"  Tell it the 
memory was less than what was there.  Many others have had the same 
experience.  Another had success by shutting off the power control in the 
bios.
