Unfortunately you need allocate more ram, I generally use 4096, but you might be able to get by with a little less. Using 2048 I can reproduce the same result. The wiki does use 4096 in the example, but I'll make a note of the crash as well. --- Thanks! I will try that! It stopped exactly in the same place the second time I tried. I added --vcpus 1. When I tried through the Virt-manager gui and tried an http install it got quite a bit further. It installed 312/485, then a similar error, then continued and finally died at 408/485 with a server install, I wasn't sure how to add the anaconda file so it was more packages. I figured it created a swapfile if it needed more ram. It was the same settings I gave win10 and what I typically give to linux x86 guests.
