Hi Folks,
Posting this incase it helps others:
I've been battling for *days* to get xen installed on Ubuntu gutsy
(amd64) on a nice new Dell Optiplex 740
CPU looked fine:
processor : 1
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+
flags : fpu tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr mca cmov pat pse36
clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt lm 3dnowext
3dnow pni cx16 lahf_lm cmp_legacy svm cr8_legacy
domain-0 seemed to install OK, debootstrap of gutsy *seemed* ok too,
just never got as far as a login prompt on console or any sign of
network activity
I eventually gave up on Xen and tried KVM - which threw an error
message at the modprobe kvm_amd
kvm: disabled by bios
(there is no BIOS option relating to virtualisation)
Updated bios from 1.1.3 to 1.2.2 and lo... all my xen goodness works[1]
Tada!
[1] well, sorta. Networking seems a bit Wierd - see separate mail
Andrew
