Thread-topic: [Xen-users] 32Bit PVM on 64Bit dom0?
Hello,

That looks like a paravirtualization error. Do you have a xen compatible
kernel booting in your domain?

Subject: [Xen-users] 32Bit PVM on 64Bit dom0?

Hi,

I tried to start a 32Bit PVM system on a 64Bit dom0, and got the
following 
error:
Using config file "./VM1".
Error: (2, 'Invalid kernel', 'xc_dom_compat_check: guest type
xen-3.0-x86_32 
not supported by xen kernel, sorry\n')

and it just did not started. Is ist just because of the different
32/64Bit 
of domU and dom0? The xen in the dom0 is configured to be backward 
compatible. The dom0 is a xen 3.1.0, the domU is a xen 3.0.3.

When this is just not working, then I have to run the dom0 in 32Bit. Do
I 
can then assign 4GB RAM to each domU, or will the dom0 be unable to
handle 
that amount of memory? I assume I need a PAE enabled Xen kernel for the 
dom0? But will I need such a kernel then for the domU's too?

kind regards
Sebastian

Sorry if this mail hits the M/L twice, I sent the original yesterday 
afternoon, and still nothing on the list, therefore resending it now.
