How much free space do you have on your FAT partition?
I have over 5 GB free, for Linux I reserved over 2 GB and 32 MB for swap. Computer has 128 MB RAM.
You need to make more space for swap. Try at least 128MB. I think that will work for you. This bug is a dupe of bug #30156. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 30156 ***
Yes, that was the problem. Thank you.
Glad to help.
