[Xen-users] Can't Create Guest on FC5 System

[Huntress Gary B NPRI <HuntressGB@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is my first attempt with xen and I'm following along with the quickstart 
guide from http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstartFC5.

I have a fresh FC5 install that is fully updated.  The box is a generic dell 
with 512MB and plenty of disk space. xend is running ok and xm list reports  

Name                              ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State  Time(s)
Domain-0                           0      256     2 r-----  1393.4

When I issue 

xenguest-install.py -n xentest -f /tmp/xentest -s 8 -r 256  -l 
http://localhost/fc5tree

it fails with the following in /var/log/xend.log

VmError: I need 257 MiB, but dom0_min_mem is 256 and shrinking to 256 MiB would 
leave only 236 MiB free.

Did I miss a step in the install process?  Is /tmp/xentest supposed to already 
exist?   Or do I need more physical RAM?
