Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: qemu

Qemu seems to be limited to < 2Gb RAM. This may seem like a lot but we
need to run Oracle DBMS + Bea Weblogic 10 on Windows XP (in a VM) and
they need more than 2Gb. Unfortunately VMWare is no help because of
another bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vmware-
server/+bug/174098).

qemu -m 2048 -boot c xp.image -> qemu gives me a usage screen
qemu -m 2047 -boot c xp.image -> "Could not allocate physical memory"
qemu -m 2000 -boot c xp.image -> qemu starts fine

The same happens when I use `kvm` instead of `qemu`. We (Ubuntu) are
note alone in this: http://qemu-forum.ipi.fi/viewtopic.php?f=6&p=12927
