Xen users - Apr 2011 - retain dom0 memory parameters after kernel update

We''re using SLES11SP1 in our environment. We current limit
dom0''s RAM
using something like:
kernel /boot/xen.gz vga=mode-0x314 dom0_mem=1024M

If we update the kernel we lose this setting. I believe there''s conf or
config file that this can be stored in instead, but I cannot find it.
Can anyone tell me?

Thanks,
Jams

Below is my /etc/sysconfig/bootloader file. I''ve tried adding
dom0_mem=1024M to each of the XEN_ lines below and rebooted. The memory
setting is not set on any of them. 

Anyone know where in this file it should be set or if it should be set
another place?

Thanks,
James
