Description Charlie Sauer 2011-05-26 18:54:38 UTC 
Description of problem: It appears that Fedora 15 really requires > 512M to install anything. I've tried everything I can think of on two 512M machines, both of which run Fedora 14 OK. Boot of live image, netinstall and boot.iso all hang. (The machines are unable to accept more that 512M memory.)

Comment 1 John J. McDonough 2011-06-03 20:20:28 UTC 
Release notes currently specify a minimum of 640, recommended 1152.

i686 Live ISO boots in 512 but warns 640 required for install.

Installs and runs on 640 as advertised.
