I run just fine w/ 8 MB and the back of the retail package says you only
need 5 MB.

I don't know why the install would be failing, but I doubt it is a memory
issue.

Ben, try running the install and selecting the minimal configuration.

Are you installing from a CD, FTP (local or via the Internet?), NFS ... ?
