Initially I had only 512 MB of RAM on my server, but after an upgrade to 2 GB RAM the installation went fine without any problems at all. I realised this running "top" and seeing all the memory being consumed by GHC. I ran into a couple of new problems trying to install the Platform, so I have not fully succeeded yet, but I am a lot closer... (Note: I also installed GCC 4.4 (as mentioned by Mr Peterson) before I retried installing Cabal and the Haskell Platform , but I do not think that affected the build / compile process at all, since GHC and not GCC is used here. And GCC 4.4 is also installed next to 4.1 that presumably would be used by default (or am I wrong about this?)) [k]
