Hello,

I have a centos5 xen 3.0.3

The dom0 is a 64bits.

Is it possile to install a 32bits guest ?

I ask this becasue I have installed a 32bits guets but when I do a uname -a on the guest i have this :
Linux fqdn.domain.com 2.6.18-8.1.6.el5xen #1 SMP Thu Jun 14 18:01:24 EDT 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

it looks like it shows exactly the same info than the dom0

It is a problem because yum, on the guest, looks for 64bits packages rather than 386 ones

Si it normal ?
How to tell to yum to look for i386 ?

Thanks
Pascal
