I am not sure I worded that last post well -

What I meant was that if RAM was the limiting issue when abrt needed
lots of space then somehow giving it more by either mounting and
linking a directory (writeable) on the key itself, or on the local HD,
to where the large necessary debug files are written, then maybe this
would allow abrt-cli to continue to completion without crashing the
entire machine.

As soon as I had the premature termination when trying to run
abrt-cli, the system would "appear" to be running but then typing any
command after that in the console seemed to just respond "segmentation
fault" even though the terminal would take input - the same response
was given to the command "shutdown -h now" at that point too on both
the machines I tried to do this on.

The conclusion I drew at that point was that memory had run out - and
it looked like the kernel was panicked - I could of course be wrong!
