This was in a VM: $ qemu-kvm -m 592 -cdrom Fedora-15-Beta-x86_64-netinst.iso -hda ../f15-test1.img -boot menu=on I had previously successfully completed a 32-bit install with the default, full-disk partitioning onto the same disk image: $ qemu-kvm -m 560 -cdrom Fedora-15-Beta-i386-netinst.iso -hda ../f15-test1.img -boot menu=on This seems to be reproducible. Restarting the VM and restarting the 64-bit install onto the same image fails with a python traceback while writing the partitions and logical volumes.

Cross-reference: Bug 696805 - installer does not report insufficient memory or swap This bug is more akin to the still open installer-does-not-handle-oom-gracefully bug: Bug 629253 - anaconda: system freezes on installing selinux *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 629253 ***
