 Hello,
 
 Given the amount of memory and the amount of swap, you probably
 run into a shortage of memory/swap in total. I saw similiar
 problems on a old computer which had almost the same amount
 of memory, it would run out of those things pretty quick, especially
 when building heavy material like MySQL etc.
 
 Please do note from a security point of view that 6.0-R is no longer
 being supported, please ponder upgrading to 6.2-R.
 
 Cheers,
 Remko
 
 p.s. With this explaination i will close this ticket.
