Help!

I am wanting to install RedHat on a old server (see server specs) and I'm
having trouble getting the install to start. I have no problem getting the
CD to boot off the SCSI CD. I do have to pass mem=212M to kernel otherwise I
get an error about "Not Enough Memory to install Linux". 

Here is my problem, once the cd boots I get an kernel panic and the below
error message:

Kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k block-major-72, errno =2
VFS: Cannot open root device "" or 48:05
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 48:05


Does anyone have any ideas as to what I need to pass to the kernel?


Server specs:
Compaq Prosignia 300
Pentuim 90 mhz
212MB RAM
4 GIG SCSI
DDS 3 DAT



Thanks!
