Public bug reported:
As I understand it the minimum requirements for installation using
ubiquity are 256MB RAM.
On a Dell Latitude L400 (700MHz mobile P3) with 256MB RAM, the Live CD
boots up but neither firefox nor the installer are remotely usable. I
waited for well over an hour for the installer window to even come up
before giving up and using the alternate.
The only other thing that might be causing issues is that the L400 uses
an external CDROM (IDE not USB) which may be quite slow. All L400s come
with this type of cdrom.
I'm unclear if the installer should be able to boot on this machine or
if the minimum requirements should be higher in this case?
