The workaround for low RAM in the past was to set the needed_ram
variable in the anaconda script to 0. I haven't done that since RHEL
5, though, so it may not be the same in 6.

Assuming that works, would I be right in thinking that this would
require a customised anaconda RPM then, since the installer is
pointed at an HTTP mirror?
