[syslinux] Isolinux 4.02

I am running isolinux 4.02 and ramdisk_size does not seem to have an effect on the ramdisk size. No matter what I set it to in the isolinux.cfg file it seems the limit is 32768.   I get the error:
ram0: rw=0, want=360456, limit=32768
EXT2-fs error (device ram0):

My isolinux.cfg file:
LABEL EB
KERNEL vmlinuxE
APPEND initrd=bos.img root=/dev/ram0 rw ramdisk_size=545000


I am running the 2.6.38.2 kernel. In the ramdisk document it says ramdisk_size is still the parameter. The kernel is configured for 245 16Mb ramdisks, so I do not think it is a kernel issue. Thanks for any help that you may be able to provide.
