At a guess, your system's 8M of RAM is not enough for the installation procedure, and you'll need to manually enable swap. Hopefully you can get far enough into the install to partition the disk and set up swap. If your install is dying even before you get an opportunity to drop to the shell and follow the instructions in the link above, well, you're in a pickle. Can you not add more RAM to the system? Even just another 8M or 16M? Even if you get an installation with 8M the system will perform terribly. (Been there, done that, no fun at all.)

Andrew.
