WOW, that was quick - THANKS. I reviewed all of those and while interesting/useful they seem to be not applicable to this particular failure.
I had meant to say that on previous attempts I had discovered the need for a fortran compiler and to disable cpu throttling. Also the desirability of installing LaTeX, so I did those. This is a very lightly loaded system, i,e, it is my personal laptop and about the only other thing it was doing at the time of failure was running Firefox with 1/2 dozen tabs open. Thanks again, I will try it all over again.
