[expert] kernel panic at install

[Fin]

I previously ran mandrake 7 on my old PII setup with no problems.
However, now that I've upgraded to an Athlon setup I get the following 
message when I try to install from dos:

kernel panic:VFS:unable to mount root fs on 08:01

It won't boot from the cd and if I try to use my old boot floppy I get 
another kernel panic message.

I also noticed that there is a message about a possible problem with RAM 
although Mandrake doesn't crash at that point.

Any ideas?
