Dear Mohd,

To my greatest disappointment in last 5 years of experience with Linux I 
failed to recover the above problem. I compiled all the possible 
combinations of kernels and only the number "xxxK freed" changed 
everytime..which is equal to the memory reserved for "init".

I was then forced to scrap one machine and other I installed with a 1 GB 
disk !

I don't want to even remember this -:(
