Description
When the hypervisor starts, it is possible to specify (via grub) various runtime configuration options which affect the operation of the hypervisor. For instance: dom0_mem specifies the amount of system memory that is available for use in domain 0.

We need to investigate all these options and determine how best to provide sensible defaults at installation.
Other options:

- dom0_vcpus
- pin_vcpus [sp?]

solaris options:
- ZFS ARC cache
I think the only part of this remaining is the ZFS arc cache.
