I think it may be due to to small memory, can you try to increase your memory to say 128MB RAM? how big is your swap space? normally it's double of your RAM size at lease the max. is 2GB, you can check your memory and swap space left by either 'top' or 'free -m' if the installation finished.

Dear Paullamhkg,
the swap space is 512mb and the installation is not finished. The error is displaying at earlier stages of setup.
