Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Remake the initrd. If it still happens, you've got too small of ramdisks specified in the kernel config. Launch make xconfig, and look for initial ramdisk size. Make it twice as big. Leave the total number of ramdisks as is (usually 16), or things will get really screwed up.
Notr to my knowledge, but at this point I don't really have any knowledge. I just downloaded kubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso and installed it. There were no problems during setup so I was quite surprised when I recieved the error message. I installed it on a clean 6.4GB harddrive and the system has 512MB RAM.
Problem resolved by disabling Memory Hole in BIOS settings. Last time that I used my proto-typing machine was when I was working with some old non Plug n Play hardware which requires a Memory Hole.
