Those are just warnings, I think the crash is something else. How much RAM do you have?
system has 49 MB RAM. I just used the text installation option and it was able to complete the install. These may be new bugs I am about to report, or they may be related to this, so I will detail them now. When it restarted however all that came up on the screen was L1 repeatedly. I had chosen the GRUB booter. I was able to boot with the boot disk I had created during the install. Once booted I was in 1280x1024 resolution, even though I had chosen 800x600 during the installation process. The display configuration will not allow me to choose any other resolutions (they are greyed out). I have the correct monitor configured during startup. After changing the monitor type to generic non-interlaced 1024x768, and logging out and back in the display was now at 1024x768 and I could lower it. I then changed the display type back to Sony CDS-100SX and I am now allowed to choose other resolutions and the display seems to function normally. Another problem I now am dealing with is that everytime I try the network configuration and I try to add a ethernet card, and then choose the NE1000 or NE2000 compatible, I get an unhandled exception error and the configuration program exits. I am inputing the correct IRQ (10)and IO (300) I have tried to choose different cards and always get the unhandled exception error. The card in my system is a NE2000 compatible ISA ethernet card.
We don't really support configuring ISA hardware via our tools.
