DSL Embedded :: size limit

Im attempting to install some software..
After extracting the setup files I deleted the tar.gz
I then got gcc1.dsl and installed it.. then deleted the .dsl file..
I then got kernal source when I try and install it. I get an error that it is out of space and then my dsl exits out.. (closes)

how do I increase the size so I can install the kernal and the app..

in the windows batch file i increased -m 64
to -m 256
That increased my RAM..
I also increased my HOME with:
sudo mount -t tmpfs /ramdisk -o remount,rw,size=1024M,nouser,exec /ramdisk

and that fixed the issues i was having
