OK, I did some tests with d-i limiting my machine's memory to 32 MB (*) and the installation failed in the same way. I've seen some work being done iin the past few days on low memory installs, so I'll continue testing and tell you once it's working. (*) Thanks to Peter Horton for implementing the capability in CoLo (his Cobalt boot loader) to limit a machine's available memory. -- Martin Michlmayr tbm@cyrius.com
