Log:
  Increase minimum RAM requirement for installation to 96MB.
  On 9.3 & 10.3 (both amd64 builds) whilst the kernel boots & installer runs with
  such an amount, the installer fails when attempting to extract a set.
  On 11 it's not actually possible to boot the kernel with less than 96MB (amd64)
  or 92MB (i386).
  Tested using VirtualBox not actual hardware.
