try the alternate install cd. i think (but might be wrong) 200MB is minimum requirement for normal install CDs.

I've trying lately to install xubuntu on 256mb, and it's proved to be hard. Definitely use alternate cd and don't try unmounting swap :)

Note: installation needs more ram then working system.

Can you help with this problem?
