Hello all,

I am sort of new to XEN and I have a dedicated server that is hosted for me.  This server is an intel single quad 4 with 4 gig of ram.  The OS is Centos 5 completely updated.  I have installed XEN from the add and remove applet within Centos.  Here is my grub.conf:

default=0

timeout=5

splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

hiddenmenu

title CentOS (2.6.18-92.1.10.el5PAE)

        root (hd0,0)

        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.10.el5PAE ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet

        initrd /initrd-2.6.18-92.1.10.el5PAE.img

title CentOS (2.6.18-92.1.10.el5xen)

        root (hd0,0)

        kernel /xen.gz-2.6.18-92.1.10.el5

        module /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.10.el5xen ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet

        module /initrd-2.6.18-92.1.10.el5xen.img

title CentOS (2.6.18-92.1.10.el5)

        root (hd0,0)

        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.10.el5 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet

        initrd /initrd-2.6.18-92.1.10.el5.img

title CentOS (2.6.18-8.1.15.el5)

        root (hd0,0)

        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.1.15.el5 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet

        initrd /initrd-2.6.18-8.1.15.el5.img

 

 

when I select # 1 CentOS (2.6.18-92.1.10.el5xen) the server will reboot, this is the message that I get from my tech:

Whenever I try to boot into the 2nd option: "CentOS
(2.6.18-92.1.10.el5xen)", your server starts to load xen, but then seems
to restart itself and load back into the PAE kernel.
 
The following error is seen as the xen kernel attempts to load:
PCI: BIOS Bug: MCFG area is not E820-reserved.
PCI: Not using MMCONFIG

 

Is this a problem with Xen install?

 

Thank you,

Tim
