Hi

I thought linux 2.6.24 kernel can be booted as a PV guest kernel under Xen.
So I have these two important options enabled in my guest PV kernel config i.e
CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION=y
CONFIG_PARAVIRT_GUEST=y
Apart from this i also enabled support for Blockfront and Netfront
drivers AFAIR.

Unfortunately i was not able to boot it successfully.

I get this error -

Using config file "./elf.pv".
Error: (2, 'Invalid kernel', 'xc_dom_find_loader: no loader found\n')

My domain0 is a 32-bit kernel and I am trying to boot a 32 bit PV
guest.Underlying hardware is a 64-bit Pentium D processor on an Intel
motherboard.

What am i missing here?
Any help?
Do i need to take care of something special?

Thanks,
     --Pradeep
