 XO-1 (G1G1v1) os850[[BR]]
 Without swap any yum transaction that involves more than 10MB of download
 will either end up quitting the terminal or freeze the XO-1. [[BR]]
 Test case [[BR]]
 on a fresh os850 install run "yum update"[[BR]]
 Result: Terminal will crash and quit[[BR]]
 on a fresh os850 install run "yum install etoys"[[BR]]
 Result: the XO-1 will freeze.
 In all cases yumvarlog is below the set limit of 109MB
 Addition of swap remedies this problem but XO-1s should not be expected to
 run with swap.
