Hi, Today the default memory size when creating a VM is 512 MB, this is coming from the Blank template, which is not modifiable by user. This amount of memory is not enough for a installation for most Linux distros (and possibly for other mainstream OS either) so I think it would make sense to increase the default memory size to 1024 MB, for most users, it would save some time. This patch changes the memory size for new installations. http://gerrit.ovirt.org/14747 Thx, Laszlo _______________________________________________ Engine-devel mailing list Engine-devel(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/engine-devel
