My experience with live images is that they include the installer and a live image. The gui within the live system most usually runs into errors, while the installer from the initial grub-like menu works just like the netinstall system. I suspect the installer without booting the live system has maximum resources available, while the live system even as idle requires 15-20% of resources to run the installation gui.
