Unfortunately, it will be very difficult to reduce the memory footprint
of the installer for 11.04. We used the same than Ubuntu, which have
some advantages (ex: shared development) and disadvantages (ex: memory
usage is not the priority of the ubiquity devs).

Installer need some improvements (reducing memory usage, add option to
install only lubuntu-core ...), but it's not the easiest part of
Lubuntu / Ubuntu :)
