We're trying to install Redhat Advance Server on a Compaq Proliant 2500

always get the error that we don't have enough memory to install it.
I searched google for +Redhat +"you do not have enough memory to
install" and it only returned one hit for an archived message. The
message had the exact same problem, but there were no follow ups.
Anyone have a workaround for this problem?
Thanks,

You could try one of these:
1) It might be a pain, but you could probably edit the source to the installer and disable the memory check. I doubt that it's something compiled in, it's probably perl or something... of course then you'll want to create a new CD and stuff... blah... I'm too lazy for that.
2) Install it on another system, create a tarball of /. Then boot the Proliant with a third party recovery disk or maybe the redhat one (if it'll work), create your partitions, format the fs, copy the tarball over the network, untar it on the / partition you made, edit /etc/fstab, configure and install lilo. To install lilo, you'll need "chroot" (it'll be on your recovery disk), read the man page first.
