I have a problem with kernel 2.4.0 and my initrd image.

I have a 500 KB bzImage, and I have a 1.200 KBytes initrd image.
My sistem have 8 MB RAM memory. When I init my bzImage from a
MSDOS floppy with this command:

 loadlin bzImage initrd=myinitrd.img

I obtain this error:

"initrd extends beyon end of memory (0x007fff0e > 0x00700000)"
"disabling initrd"

So I can not use my ramdisk image. This problem avoid if I use
any 2.2.x kernel image.

What's happen?
