Following my tests on a pre-Beta ISO :

I reproduce a similar bug, I arrive on a black screen, with a mouse
cursor, without a desktop (pcmanfm). You can still launch a terminal
with a right click on the desktop, and launch "sudo ubiquity" to launch
the installer.

I think I found the problem, but I'm not sure I'll be able to fix it for
the Beta.

Hum, confirmed on a VM with only 256 Mo, ubiquity crashed. Maybe when
the "Install mode only" will be fixed, we can lower the requirement.
It's time to work on the alternate ISO generation :-/

Beta 1 still planned tomorrow, with probably a amd64 version along with
the usual i386.
