Add fake RAM

I need to do something very unusual. Since I want to install Oracle XE on my HP Thin Client and it needs 256 MB RAM and installer shows me only 253, i need to add fake RAM for installer to see. I managed to add fake swap (mkswap swapon), but i dont't have a clue how to trick installer with  RAM.

Trying to install Oracle 10g XE just for fun. I know it will be horribly slow and stuff smile.

Ideas guys?

Re: Add fake RAM

Maybe you can change the install script to skip the check.

Re: Add fake RAM

A lot of binary packages are a script attached to a archive. There should be a flag to extract only.
