Description
In low memory setups, the upgrader fails at step 5. The other steps work without problems.
Solution: The updater should either provide
- a low memory version to verify the integrity of the downloaded zip file at step 5 or
- provide a way for users to continue at step 5 without successful verification of the zip file (there should be a not about where to find the downloaded zip file an how to verify the integrity of the ZIP file yourself before letting the updater continue)

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure at updater step 5 in a low-memory setup and trace the ZIP integrity verification involved there. Done means users can complete the update reliably under low memory, or can continue after verification with clear instructions for locating and checking the downloaded ZIP.
