In a large pot, cook potatoes in boiling salted water for 20 minutes, or until tender. Drain. Mash potatoes to make two cups; set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine one and half cups flour and yeast; set aside. In a saucepan, heat milk, margarine, sugar, and salt until 115 degrees on thermometer, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add potatoes. Add to flour mixture. Add eggs and mix well. Stir in remaining flour. Place dough in prepared bowl; turning to coat all sides. Cover and chill for several hours.
