It's seems pretty likely that the OP was talking about 32bit *minios*
domains, not Linux ones.

I'm not sure if mini-os supports migration at all. I do recall the
openmirage people fixing some stuff in mini-os in that regard, but I'd
expect that was for 64-bit since I expect that is what they use.

Vasco, you might look at what the mirage folks did (look in xen.git and
there trees) and see if it applies to 32-bit, otherwise I'm afraid you
may be stuck implementing (or at least fixing) migration in mini-os
yourself.

Ian.
