2. Browse to install xen guest via /var/lib/xen/iso/RHEL5-Server-x86_64-DVD.iso
3. Assigning storage space:

    Files Size: 6000MB
4. Allocate memory and CPU:
    Memory: 500MB
    VCPUs: 1

6. Select all packages, except LANGUAGE packages.
7. During xen guest installation, system shows error message:

    217 M on / 
  
Actual results:
