For those users with a version 4 board (the ones that have 512MB ram) it would be suggested to have them do an apt-get update/upgrade early in the process as the stock soft-float image doesn't have the updated bootloader needed to support the full amount. Until they do that they are limited to 256MB ram. The upgraded bootloader package will be done during the apt-get upgrade process.

I'm going to add that it fails on the most recent soft float image because it is wheezy based. The installer replaces the sources.list with one from squeeze which causes it to fail when installing packages. I saw that the most recent supported image is squeeze based so this will cause a few headaches.

If you are using a v4 board (512MB ram) then manually update the bootloader then set it to 32MB GPU allocation (if you want) manually. The last step will fail. Hopefully the rest works ok.
