The installer assumed that it could not run the GUI mode as it cam up with 232Mb memory (24Mb used by video card).

This number itself is fairly open to argument. Is 256 megs of usable ram really a hard limit practically ? I think its the best compromise for the situation that we are in - and the anaconda+yum combo definitely needs working to try and optimise the amount of ram it uses at install time - dont think anyone is going to deny that.
I have already done one isntall on a Compaq SFF that has 256Mb memory. It went well, I did not feel I had any challenges with the install. As compared to the Compaq SFF with 512Mb.

It would be nice if we could at least have an override to 'try it anyway'. I mean what could go wrong with only 232Mb??? ;)
