Description He Rui 2011-04-01 02:50:41 EDT

Description of problem:

Since F-15 requires at least about 1G memory to boot its installer, default 512M isn't fit for F-15 guest install any more. Therefore, at least 1G memory default set is required so that users don't need to manually change it during F-15 guest install.

Comment 1 Markus Armbruster 2011-04-01 03:27:27 EDT

Requiring more than 512MiB for install is bad.  Bug 692788.  Let's see how that one works out before we change the default.

Comment 2 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2012-03-15 13:52:28 EDT

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 3 Cole Robinson 2012-05-28 19:11:38 EDT

Changing defaults in qemu is a large process since the tool is many things to many people. In this particular case, it's better to just push it to higher level tools like virt-manager, which already sets a high enough default memory to accomodate anaconda. Closing as CURRENTRELEASE for virt-manager
