Unfortunately that's not something likely to be seen by potential
newbies who are thinking of trying out this Fedora thing. The fact that
more than 512MB is required is a fact of life for the moment. Stating
the wrong value on the primary entry point for Fedora information is a
bug in the release process (now fixed).
