  until now, i've test installed f9a several times on a gateway laptop

formatting the root filesystem, and the latest 300+ packages into the
install.

  is there something about extra memory that f9a just doesn't like?

Just wondering, did you change the swap size that was being used relative to the physical memory size? Or did the installs all end up with the same swap partition size? Was it being auto configured for swap size? Did the install still warn that the swap was going to be formatted early in the install process (it probably did warn of that with just 512Mb, just after the partition setup rather than after the package selection)?
