On a partition where I keep 2-3 kernels and their modules compiled, along with the basic stuff that is required to boot the system, I have given 200 Mb and it's more than enough :) > 500M swap OK > 1 G / What is this?

I think that 1 Gb for /usr is far too small (at least for someone who wants to install ALL the ports and sources), and you're probably running out of space in the middle of the installation.
