[Bug 1050595] Re: Ubuntu Server installation with 128M ram hangs

[Doug Smythies]

"I.E. I wonder if a 32 bit virtual installation would work with only 128
Megabytes of memory? (Maybe that is what the OP tried?)"

It does not work.

  Ubuntu Server installation with 128M ram hangs

Bug description:
  Installing quantal 20120913 server image hangs at detecting disks and
  all other hardware with 128M.  Our currently stated minimum system
  requirements include 128M ram for -server installs, so I'm using a KVM
  session with 128M to test this.

  Bumping this to 256 will allow it to make it through the install, but
  still get's lots of OOMs throughout the installation process.
