will low memory cause crash?

[mikk]

Could lack of memory be the reason my dm 7025 crashes so easily. In the nab bh menu RAM (root?) is 96% so I guess when I try to add anything else the cup overspills? I know the image should be on the cf card but could never get it save there. Here is some info from DCC,

Could someone more knowledgeable confirm this is indeed the problem. If so I will try to install the image with a command line as DBE always sticks it in the root, also should I update the os from 1.5, if there is one?
