Re: Kubuntu 9.10 freezes when i try to install
256Mb is about the lowest you can use.
Which disk are you trying to install from? There are two install disks, the Desktop and the Alternate. The Desktop is a LiveCD and uses a lot of RAM because it is doing two jobs, LiveCD and installing. The Alternate is a straight install and only needs about 64Mb to install.
Either, increase the amount of RAM,
or use the Alternate disk,
or use a lighter distro e.g. Xubuntu."A problem well stated is a problem half solved." --Charles F. Kettering
