Right. So let's now focus on this being a sysinst problem.

Should not be any problems. The only requirements is that the root file 
system needs to be within the first 1G of the disk. Once the kernel have 
been loaded the ROM driver is not used anymore, and the full size of the 
disk can be accessed without problems.

It's just a warning. :-)
I have it to, and just ignore it. I think it really just is because of 
/var not mounted yet. Maybe you could point the startup command to read 
from somewhere else instead to get rid of the message. I have not even 
bothered looking into that. There are other problems that are more 
important to look at.
