F15 Stops VMLinux at "Trying to unpack rootfs image
Booting from F 15 DVD. The VMlinux install stops at Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs....
It has done it several times in a row. I have used this DVD for othe installs with no trouble. It is an older MB with an 1800 Athlon and 512MB of ram.
Help please.

I believe you need a minimum of 768 MB RAM to install.
