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

Since 3.1 you can run 32-bit PV guests on a 64-bit Xen. You can even run a
32-bit dom0 on a 64-bit Xen and still have 64-bit domUs running. The 32-bit
guests have to use PAE, though.
32-bit PV guests on Xen are, from what I've heard, better peforming than the
64-bit PV guests...

So now we have:
Xen
-----------------------------------------
32bit 32-bit/PAE 64bit
Dom0 32-bit yes no no
Dom0 32-bit PAE no yes yes
Dom0 64-bit no no yes
dU 32bit PV yes no no
dU 32-bit PAE PV no yes yes
dU 64bit PV no no yes
dU 32bit HVM yes yes yes
dU 32-bit PAE HVM no yes yes
dU 64bit HVM no no yes

How's that? ;-)
