Surely you're not trying to install either KDE or Gnome on a machine with only 512mb RAM?!
I did this 3 daus ago, without any problem (11.4, but often did for 11.3)
I wuld expect that you have to 'tune' a few things - kill off file indexers, zeitgeist, nepomuk, stuff like that... But with 512 MB you should be able to use your computer provided you don't try to open 20 tabs with flash in Chromium on top of it all ;-)
is was more difficult with 11.2 and 11.1
we have these days many second hand computer with decent PIV processors, but few ram, and perfectly working.
You can even install in as few as 256Mb, but don't try to use it then
