I'm installing woody on a Mac se/30. It has got through to installing

My question is - do I just let it run and it will get there, or has it
crashed?
The SE/30 has 8mb ram and loads of h/d space (like 32MB swap and 4-500
mb linux partition).
the 8MB ram would be the problem there.
A few months ago a friend started installing Woody on an 8MB Mac IIci
(also a 68030). It was a good 4 days (maybe 5) before the install
finished. Swapping with that amount of memory was -harsh-.
However, with a quick upgrade to 20MB it was quite usable afterwards.
