This looks like a good idea.
I also installed Cassandra on a Thinkpad T22 with 256MB of memory. I simply changed the size of the RAM disk from the more than 1GB requested to 230MB. My swap disk is about 500MB ( this was pre configured). Accessing the boot options means pressing F6 from the boot splash screen and modifying the grub command.
Without changing the size of the RAM, it was *painful* to try and run the installer. With the change, the system was quite responsive the whole time and Cassandra was completely installed in about 15-20 minutes.
BTW, once installed 256MB seems quite reasonable for your basic LinuxMint gnome desktop.
