For access to the installer in the future, you might want to choose
File -> Save Settings... as something called 'Rescue' or so. Then if
you double click on Rescue, Penguin will start with those settings.
In the Penguin, under File -> Settings..., first switch to the Kernel
tab and un-check the ramdisk option. Then in the Options tab, type in
the root= clause.
If you want to use these settings from now on, select
File -> Save Settings as Default.
I'll make this a little clearer in the manual.
