  I don't understand why that is a bug at all.  I don't think there is a
scrap of documentation anywhere that says that the user should expect
Solaris/SNV/BeleniX/ON-foo to run or install with less than 512MB of RAM.
I am of the firm opinion that a user should have 1GB RAM minimum to use
Solaris at all.  If someone ( like me ) decides to crush Solaris into some
microscopic little appliance thing with 64MB of RAM then that is just an
experiment ... nothing more.  Certainly not supported.

  I think that the docs on this are clear and this bugid 6548184 falls into
the area of "not supported and never was".
