[xen-tools-discuss] Debian Wheezy as DomU see less/wrong RAM

[Alessio Cecchi]

Hi,

I'm running Debian Wheezy as Dom0 and with xen-tool (from repository) I 
have created a new VM (Debian Wheezy) with 512MB of RAM:

# xm list
Name                                        ID   Mem VCPUs State   Time(s)
Domain-0                                     0  3318     2 r-----    165.7
deb7pv                                       2   512     1 -b----     12.8

But inside VM deb7pv I found less than 512MB of RAM:

root at deb7pv:~# free -m
              total       used       free     shared    buffers cached
Mem:           494        127        366          0 2        106
-/+ buffers/cache:         18        475
Swap:          511          0        511

Why?
