Well I had the same problem. You don't need to increase the sizes of any program. What you should increase is the amount of free RAM. I made a second "root" Disk, containing only the for rebuilding really needed stuff. With
this smaller RamDisk I rebooted and made it perfectly.
(kernel.mix too big means "don't have the needed space to load it").

Hope (no: Think) this could help you, enjoy 1.5.10#3!!

Ciao,
     Michael.
