[Live-demo] [GeoNetwork-users] GeoNetwork rarely starts

[Angelos Tzotsos]

Hi,

Although OSGeo-Live 10.0 lists 1.0 GB of RAM as minimum requirement, 
GeoNetwork requires much more to run properly.
This is why we have added a hint in that section of our download page: 
https://live.osgeo.org/en/download.html

Cheers,
Angelos
