Ya thanks for telling this. But what if I want to give my Xen virtual

Anaconda really likes to have 256.
Because if I give 128MB koan always fails during balloning. While if I
don't use koan + cobbler I can install xen virtual machine with 128 MB
RAM support only.
Using virt-manager? Perhaps that is granting it more RAM during
install and using a different value after the fact? Hmm...
Nope - if you ask for 128 MB, that's all you'll be given. We don't enforce
a 256 MB minimum, because the user may be installing OS which don't use
Anaconda & thus would work just fine with < 256 MB.

Thanks, Dan.
Niyaz, I looked at the koan source and it does (it suprised me,
actually!) enforce a 256Mb limit (previously, I found Anaconda rather
unhappy at 128MB). I'll remove it in the next release and put
appropriate documentation in the cobbler manpage about using settings
lower than 128. Appreciate the report!
