Xen LiveCD (12, Cannot allocate memory)
Using a Dell PowerEdge 100, I'm building a compartmentalized architecture.
After launching FreeBSD within Xen, then attempting to launch NetBSD and
switching between terminals, I ran into the error "12, Cannot allocate
memory" when trying from a separate terminal..

Pardon the lack of details, I'm not at the machine right now, but wanted
to open this up for discussion.

Additioanlly, I am looking for some details on using SELinux within Xen,
are there any known issues? So far it is looking like Xen hasn't quite
caught on as much as its UML partner and I'm hoping to add to the
documetnation out there.

Glad to be a part of the community, looking to put Xen through the works.

-Matthew

How much RAM do you have? Bear in mind that Xen and dom0 (the master Linux
you initially boot into) both take up memory too.

Try running "xm info" at a prompt to see how much free ram there actually is.

It should just work.
