Description of problem:
When installing Linux 7.1 on a Dell Inspiron 8000 (Pentium III,
256 MB  RAM, running WindowsMe) I set up multiple native linux
partitions (/boot [23 MB], / [512 MB], /usr [1 GB]) and also mounted
my Windows Me partions (both FAT and FAT32) as /WinMe/system, 
/WinMe/applications, /WinMe/userdata, etc., all using Disk Druid.  I then 
selected both Gnome and KDE, and proceded to start the 
installation.  It reported an error about being 256 MB short on /usr 
(I did not copy the exact text of the message) and anaconda then went 
belly-up.  Below is the anacdump.txt file:
