Is it an x86_64 install? I had a problem with Xen last year under 5.x whereby I had to increase the VM's memory footprint to 512 MB

bind-9.7.0-5.P2To determine other versions the src.rpm's are located at
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/enterprise/6/en/source/SRPMS/
And what are the minimum system requirements? Will we still be able to install this on a 256Mb system for example?
Great! Now I know what to look for I can put the right search string into google to get this page!
Well that has the information I was looking for except....
It says there that RHEL 5's minimum memory is 512Mb. Last week I installed Centos 5.5 on a test system with 256Mb with a 1Gb of cache:
# free total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 254124 235864 18260 0 5952 97668 -/+ buffers/cache: 132244 121880 Swap: 1052248 151876 900372
So I hope that Centos 6 will continue to be installable on a 256Mb system. It does not pay to replace the memory on these test systems. I can pick up 1Gb used SFF systems for about the same price as 512Mb memory for these old boxes.
I just tried to install RH EL 6 on a virtual mashine with 256 MB. Just after the installer boots it says 'You do not have enough RAM to install ....'
