Mavericks install restart loop

[Disgrace]

I'm trying to clean install Mavericks from a USB stick onto a new HDD.

The MacBook crashes at the beginning of installation and says "your computer restarted because of a problem. Press any key..."

Trying again creates the same problem, so I'm stuck in a loop. I have already reset my PRAM.

Thanks.

Edited for future reference: dud RAM was the cause.

Wow, good job at troubleshooting that one!
