[Xen-users] Re: PV 32-in-64 ? Howto ?

Well, I *have* a 64 bit dom0 with a 32 bit PV guest running. But the kernel is a 64 bit kernel. But since a 64 bit kernel can run 32 bit applications (if the configure options are set), there is no problem.

I installed a 32 bit base system (debootstrap --arch i386 etch <target>) as a DomU, compiled a 64 bit kernel in the 64 bit Dom0 (with 32 bit support) and everything works fine.

Shade and sweet water!
