[Xen-ia64-devel] RE: Problems in building xen/ia64

["Magenheimer, Dan (HP Labs Fort Collins)" <dan.magenheimer@xxxxxx>]

Hi Shen --

Did you create a linux-2.6.11 tree and run
'bash arch/ia64/tools/mkbuildtree' as described
in the README?  Also, "make" should be run from within
the xen directory (not xeno-unstable.bk) as none of the
other tools work for ia64 yet.

Yes, Xen/ia64 can utilize memory over 4GB (though I'm not sure
this has been tested recently so it wouldn't surprise me if
it doesn't work right now).

Dan

P.S. Postings should be sent to xen-ia64-devel, not
xen-ia64-devel-request.
