Unhappy Problems installing ML8.2 on a Toshiba Satellite laptop


I´m trying to install ML 8.2 on a small Toshiba Satellite Pro 400CS laptop with 800 Mb of hard disk space and 24 Mb of RAM. The installation starts ok, but when in second stage, it halts and returns the following errors:

install exited abnormally :-(
sending termination signals..done
sending kill signals..done
unmounting file systems...
/proc
/tmp/image
you may safely reboot your system

I think it´s lack of physical memory, but I´m not sure. I´ve heard something about booting from the second install CD, but my CD drive doesn´t support CD-ROM boot, and I don´t know how to make a boot diskette that doesn´t refer to the first CD. Is there another way to install ML? Any ideas?

Any help will be really appreciated. Thanks a lot! I´m in a hurry!
