I had a similar problem with my trim slice after upgrading it to 12.04, which has only 1GB memory. The daft buggers left swap turned off in the kernel, so I had to recompile linux with it enabled. Got myself a serial cable (saved my life!) to get access to the boot console to first test that the built image work, then voila - I can now compile gcc. \o/
