I do an installion via my local suse mirror and was also surprised that
even 1024MB were not enough to install.
This evening I did a reinstall of a guest and reconfigured it with
1200MB, which worked. After the installation 256MB were enough. But
someone here mentioned if I'm using the first edition. I'm doing a
nightly sync from mirrorservice.org so that's my "edition". I assume
that's the not patched one? (We just using here servers with =>2 CPUs
and => 2GB RAM so noone would recognize memory consumption during
installation ;-)

In the next days my Intel VT machine will arraive so I will do some more
testing.
If anyone is interested give me a private mail.

Thanks
Jan
