How much RAM do you have in this machine and is it known to be good? The
only thing I can think of preventing Linux from creating and mounting a ram
disk is either lack of free ram (try installing via a text install, rather
than graphical) or bad ram (only option is to buy some decent ram).
You CDROM is known to be good isn't it?

Subject: [newbie] Installing Mandrake 8.1
On a machine on which I have been able to install Suse 6.4 and
Mandrake
7.1 I get the following problem when trying to install Mandrake 8.1:
Mounting /dev/ram3 on /tmp/stage2 as type ext2
Mount failed: invalid argument
Or
(4) VFS: Can't find ext2 filesystem on dev ram disk (1,3).
Any thoughts?
Thanks
