[softlib]

Hello,

  Yeah. I use a intel original motherboard too (I845EBG2), Intel P4-2.0G
  DDR 256MB * 2 (DDR266).
  At first time, i have sent a little photo to show this problem, but
  it be cut out.

>> MEMDISK 2.07 ....
>> E820: ....

>> Ramdisk at 0x1ff10000, lenth 0x0000bb79
>> Moving compressed data from 0x1ff10000 to 0x 1fdcc400
>> gzip image: decompressed addr 0x1fdd8000, len 0x00168000: failed
>> Decompression error: ran out of input data
>> ran out of input data
the "..." part of message is just some hex number, I think it is
not important. And it is defined in program.

Please try to load a compressed image under a Intel 845 chipset
original motherboard, such as I845EBG2 or so on.
Or, provide me a email address which could receive picture.
