I saw changes in changeset 14392 to 32bit bios support module, so rebuilt with changeset 14391and retried the 32-bit SLES10 non-PAE and it boots fine.

Thanks for narrowing down to a specific changeset. I’ll stare at that one and see if I can work out what’s going on.

That changeset looks like it actually fixes bugs rather than introducing them. Either way, rombios is not configured by default to use the TCG extensions, so the 32-bit highmem bios extension should not even be used.

With current unstable repository, does the problem go away if you comment out the one-line body of function highbios_setup() in file tools/firmware/hvmloader/32bitbios_support.c?
