I've run into an interesting problem, which trying to install a 64bit guest:
libvir: Xen Daemon error : POST operation failed: (xend.err 'Error
creating domain: I need 524288 KiB, but dom0_min_mem is 262144 and
shrinking to 262144 KiB would leave only 461040 KiB free.')
Traceback (most recent call last):

Even though Linux reports only 713MB RAM, the machine has 2GB RAM. How /
where do I fix this?
