This leads me to a question that I'm mildly interested in.

If it took so long for Fedora to have a 64 bit favor, why would anyone use it?
Is there a different market for Fedora on the mainframe than for Redhat or Suse?
What does Fedora do that can't be done with Redhat or Suse which gets timely 
upgrades?

Back in the Suse 7/8 time frame, Redhat seemed to be skipping support for every 
other release of Oracle.  I don't recall if they skipped support for every 
release of other products as well.  That made my decision very easy.  I'm going 
with the distribution that offers consistent and timely support.

So, why would anyone use a distribution that is years behind in support?

Inquiring minds want to know...

You are correct. 1G allows the VNC method to be used and all the customization 
that comes with it. Tks

This looks like you're doing a text installation where you have only a limited

you'll need to assign more memory for this guest and try again, I was doing my 
test
installs with 1G.
That's only required for the installation, the memory requirements of the 
installed system
can be much smaller, depending on what you intend to use it for.
