until now, i've test installed f9a several times on a gateway

with 512M of RAM. after adding another 1G of DDR 400 RAM, every
install attempt ends up hanging somewhere -- checking SW dependencies,
formatting the root filesystem, and the latest 300+ packages into the
install.
In my experience, random hangs/crashes are due to bad hardware (overheated
CPU, bad powersource, bad RAM). Start running memtest for a full round.
