256M memory, no swap at the time.

After fresh boot to the default RH71 kernel (2.4.2-2 or whatever it is) on
console (no X running):

> diff -Naur /usr/src/linux.rh-default /usr/src/linux-2.4.4 > diff
zsh: killed diff

kernel: out of memory, killed process n (xfs)
kernel: out of memory, killed process n (diff)
