Hardware: Compaq Presario 1720US laptop P3 1G cpu 256M ram
During first attempt to install (fresh) while selecting custom software choices the system became very sluggish and eventually crashed the installer. In trying to recreate the problem the system became sluggish again but did not crash and once swap was added the system became responsive again. This could become a big issue for low ram systems where a custom software selection is made. I believe this can be verified by someone else that has a low ram system and by using the "expert" area of the software selection. If you poke around in the various patterns and also use search to select and deselect packages I think this problem can be easily reproduced. Perhaps asking to mount the swap partition before going to the summary screen would be appropriate. After my laptop install is finished I will repeat the process and try to reproduce the crash. If successful I will open a bug report.
