I've typically run into the memory limit in VMs, where it is trivial

How much memory does it take to run and install from a live CD?
What about a clone of a partition that has CentOS installed?

The installer (anaconda) is written in python. The memory limit is hard-coded

Ok, final result: deleting the initramfs files results in a clean

nobody needs. Great.

That is really funny: inside of this ramdisk is a tmp dir, with 279 MB
inside, where the biggest part is the squashfs image and some files
which are generated after start of installation.

Just FYI:
I had several problems to install CentOS 7 with 512 MB RAM. No log
showed me that problem (I would expect a system check before).
With 1 GB RAM everything runs fine. Don't know, what they do with
