As I wrote in another bug-report (#401889 iirc), this doesnt work well (at 
least on powerpc): with 96mb I could ran g-i, but the partioner would 
frequently crash due to too little memory. 

So this limit should be raised to 128mb on powerpc.

Right. But such a text can be added to yaboots boot.msg.
