I can confirm it with 512 MB RAM on EEE PC, now I've upgraded to 2 GB but I 
still have old module so I can check it again. I thought that 512 MB RAM is 
really low for live CD and such slow laptop but then I realized that I don't 
have such problem with F10 live CD (iso to usb). I hope it boots from SD card 
in USB reader...
