Boot from thumb drive: "Ran out of input data"

I'm trying to boot the RHEL4u5 installer from a thumb drive on an HP
DL145g3. When it boots up, I get :
Could not find kernel image: linux
At the boot prompt, I entered "vmlinuz initrd=initrd.img"; it loads
the kernel and initrd image, but then dies with "ran out of input
data."
I've checksummed the ISOs I downloaded, tried two USB drives, and both
front USB ports on the machine.
To put the boot image on the thumb drive, I did:
dd if=diskboot.img of=/dev/sdb
I was able to boot the RHEL5 installer from a thumb drive on
this machine without a problem.
Any ideas?
