That error message is in the linux decompression code and appears when it can't malloc the necessary memory (32kb), or if it's asked to decompress to address 0.
I guess that this either means that linux doesn't find usable memory tables, or that some parts of the linux bootblock data structure are not filled in correctly. The latter can happen when the kernel version is too new for the used linux loader.
Thanks Patrick. Hmm by linux loader you mean FILO? I was booting this directly from the FILO prompt. FYI the same OS boots fine from regular hard drive, and the Live USB image boots fine on another PC.
Is this the latest svn libpayload and filo?
