After messing around with the size of /tmp and creating swapfiles, it
occurred to me to do this on a OLPC XO 1.5, which is a x86 machine
with 1GHz  CPU and 1GB RAM. I had to up the /tmp to 256MB from 50MB.
It ran like a champ!

I have a bin folder all ready to run. Will try this out tomorrow on
XO-1 machines (AMD Geode CPU @ 433MHz w/ 256MB RAM). Let's see if it
will fly.

cheers,
Sameer
