Unable to complete installation (VMware)

Hi!
I have been trying to install Q4OS "q4os-4.10-x64-tde.r1" and "q4os-4.10-x64-instcd.r1" inside VMware.
It works to a certain extent, but 2 major issues:

1. It uses over 10 gigs of RAM in the Live CD whilst installing! Most of the physical machines I work on have 4-8gb so this just isn't usable.

2. It fails to install the UK language pack, it just gets stuck on both the live cd installer and the text installer.

Anyone know how to solve this issue?

Thanks!

Re: Unable to complete installation (VMware)

I've tried it again from scratch and it gets past that stage just fine, but now gets stuck here: Setup action: Copying system packages ...
I can cancel it and use the system, but if I run desktop profiler again it gets stuck at the same stage.

EDIT:
It seems to work if I cancel it and re-run the desktop profiler, some times it takes 2 or 3 tries but it eventually works. Is this a known bug?

Thanks!
