If you are doing an install and keeping your /home partition, you can
record the debug messages just before the failure by doing:
crtl-alt-F2
cat ddebug.log > /mnt/home/debug.txt
cat /proc/meminfo > /mnt/home/meminfo.txt
cat /roc/swaps > /mnt/home/swaps.txt
I have explore2fs which I run under windows to view linux ext2 files.
Here is the link.
