[Caiman-team] [OpenIndiana Distribution - Bug #1024] Installation failing b/c disk space smaller than RAM

[illumos project]

Issue #1024 has been updated by Dean Calver.


The gui installer *doesn't* have this issue, so for oi_151 I'm going to unify the logic between text and gui installer which will fix this bug.
So for a work around for 148 you can install via the gui installer image (though of course getting lots of extras), for 151 this should be fixed.

We tried to install oi build 148 x86 Server (both from dvd and usb) and the installation always failed because the swap space that is created during install is too big for the disks we're using.

we have 64gb of RAM and tried to install on a 40GB ssd drive.
