That's not much RAM, we still haven't fixed some spurious allocations
for the initrd, I'm afraid 392M may not be enough for the default
d-i process.  You can check how much is left during installation by
switching to the second console and running vmstat-hurd there.

You can try to run d-i in lowmem mode, by editing the grub entry to add
lowmem=1 to the options.  I've just tried it it qemu, it seems to be
working with 392M RAM.  I'll tune the lowmem automatic trigger.
