I was thinking more along the lines of a warning like "Your computer only 
has 8MB of RAM, but a minimum of 12MB is recommended for Debian 3.0.
Consider fitting more memory, or installing an older version of Debian 
instead."

It does seem a bit unfriendly if installs just blow up in some mysterious
fashion on machines where potato didn't have a problem.
