The "treebuilder" branch of lorax, where such a project is being developed,
is not complete today.

Anaconda requires 768MB, and more (>=1GB) if there is no swap partition.

Use the installer that is available on a Live spin, instead of using
anaconda.  Being "live" (running from media without install) might
have other advantages in the stated environment: try-before-install
(without modifying the harddrive), etc.
