It's hard to say whether this is really a bug or not - I still think
your overall memory is low - 1 GB of RAM should be a supported
configuration, but that assumes a decent amount of swap - I'll bet
sysinstall's recommended partitioning would give you 2 GB.

Try mailing the maintainers (gecko at freebsd.org) and see what they say.
