Nah. I don't see how that would account for such a difference. This is
crashing early in the install - prior to partitioning. I'm a bit behind
in Anaconda phraseology, but this is almost what used to be stage 1,
except we're running within a 100MB+ ramdisk image with a GUI now.

Something is using a lot of memory (anaconda) and causing the kernel
badness calculation to blame it for all the world's evils. I'd love to
know if others have seen this, especially in F-10 Beta.

Jon.
