How much memory does the machine have? Can you grab /tmp/anaconda.log and /tmp/syslog from the machine once you hit this error? You may need to add the "nokill" parameter.

You may need to add the "nokill" parameter. According beaker information, the machine has 867 MB of memory.

Just as I thought - first depmod, then anaconda are getting killed by the oom killer. I don't know that there's anything we can do about this situation.
