Error message about memory on xm create: msg#00204

Subject:	Error message about memory on xm create

I have been running xen for about a week on a FC5 host running a FC5 guest with great sucess. I just did a "yum update" on the host system and when I try to start the guest I now see this:

[root@localhost xen]# xm create -c WebServer1
Using config file "WebServer1".
Going to boot Fedora Core (2.6.16-1.2096_FC5xenU)
kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5xenU
initrd: /initrd-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5xenU.img
Error: Error creating domain: I need 513 MiB, but dom0_min_mem is 256 and shrinking to 256 MiB would leave only 2780 MiB free.

I am not really sure if this error message make sense, if I have 2780 I should have more then enough for 513 for a guest OS ... am I reading this right? Any ideas?

I have tried a "xm mem-set Domain-0 1024" to see if it made a difference, but it didn't.

Thanks,

-Bob
