Hi,

** I am also getting this error on a couple of 'low spec' machines (P90,
8Mb
** Ram),  I am putting it down to lack of memory, because it does not
happen if
** I double the memory.
**
** I go around it but putting 64Mb ram in the machine, installing and
setting
** the box up, and then removing the memory.  Bad work around, but it
works...

SuSE is a sod on low mem systems.  It won't install via FTP on my
16Mb P60 firewall at all.  YaST also struggles a tad.  I'd say
that 32M is probably a good minimum as 8-16Mb makes it painful
and causes ppp to dump all the time in my experience.  My
normal workstation has 256M of RAM in it and that stil swaps
sometimes :-P
