Hi Reagan and thanks a lot for replying so quickly!!
I have provided the log, that contains the most precise information, though here are some other entries, my exit code is 515, not 508:
dev_bootstrap:

jvm_bootstrap.out contains exactly the same error:

And basically, those are all the bootstrap log files, which are most recent...
I have been thinking to uninstall the complete instance and then try target system installation once again, after everything from the previous instance has been cleaned up... What do you think? Of course, no answer to my OSS message, as it is weekend... Thank you!!
