Are you meaning a x86 XenU on a x86_64 host system? An _unmodified_ x86 domU on an x86_64 host.64 bit Xen doesn't support the 32-bit Xen interface, so explicitly Xen-native 32-bit guests can't run on it even though fully-virtualised unmodified guests can. i.e.: 32-bit host: 32-bit Xen-native guests 32-bit host w/VT or w/Pacifica: 32-bit Xen-native guests, 32-bit unmodified guests 64-bit host: 64-bit Xen-native guests 64-bit host w/VT or w/Pacifica: 64-bit Xen-native guests, 64 or 32 bit unmodified guests Cheers, Mark Regards, Matthijs ter Woord----- Original Message ----- From: "Anthony Liguori" <aliguori@xxxxxxxxxx>To: "Matthijs ter Woord" <matthijsterwoord@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: <xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, November 21, 2005 3:46 PM Subject: Re: [Xen-users] Pacifica/VT againMatthijs ter Woord wrote: > Hi,> > Some time ago i asked a question about the Pacifica/VT features.
