FWIW, I tried it again.

Same memory stick, but different computer, and this time with Feisty
Kubuntu 7.04 beta.

Crashed again.  My opinion is, a functioning installation of any modern
distro should fit comfortably on a 1 gig medium.

I see that the stick has over 800MB of files on it, after the crash.

Tragically, I once again didn't retrieve the /var/log/installer/syslog
file.  This time however, the installer gave me text that I could copy:

raise RuntimeError, ("Install failed with exit code %s\n%s" %
RuntimeError: Install failed with exit code 1
