So this look to me like I *should* have 3 gigs free, why its still
saying that its using 1gig is beyond me. Anyhow, now I try to start my
guest...
xen1:/etc/xen# xm create syslog.cfg
Using config file "./syslog.cfg".
Error: (4, 'Out of memory', 'xc_dom_alloc_segment: segment ramdisk too
large (0xef4f > 0x10000 - 0x26e0 pages)\n')
xen1:/etc/xen# cat syslog.cfg
kernel = '/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31.12'
ramdisk = '/boot/initrd.img-2.6.31.12'
memory = '256'
#maxmem = '384'
root = '/dev/xvda ro'
disk = ['phy:/dev/volumes/syslog,xvda,w']
name = 'syslog'
vcpus = 1
vif = [ 'ip=208.200.248.121, mac=00:16:3E:36:9C:15,

vfb = ['vnc=1, vnclisten=0.0.0.0, vncunused=1']
serial = 'pty'
on_poweroff = 'destroy'
on_reboot = 'restart'

/dev/volumes/syslog is on lvm.
I dont get it, I had this working fine on another box argh. The last
thing I just did was remove all /boot files related to xen, dom0
kernel etc, did make uninstall in xen-testing and then copied over
tarballs of my working install, then ran the make install and copied
my xend-config over. Why does this hate me so
