AFAIK, 64 bit Xen will not run 32 bit domains. This is a planned feature, but not for the very near term future.

That's OK - I can use a dchroot jail to do the work I need to do on 32 bit until the feature is available


My problem now is that I can never get the xm create command to work. My config file (/etc/xen/linuxdev) looks like this:


name="linuxdev"
memory=512
kernel="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xenU"
nics=1
disk=] 'file:/srv/linuxdev.img,hda1,w', 'file:/src/linuxdev_home.img,hda2,w' ]
root="/dev/hda1 ro"


There's an obvious syntax error there in the disk line. Is this a copy-paste error?


Yes, copy-paste error. Oops.



Name Id Mem(MB) CPU VCPU(s) State Time(s) Domain-0 0 635 0 1 r---- 19.5

Note the memory increase in Domain-0. Each time I try xm create it goes up until it runs out of memory.


Woah!  That's crazy.  How old of a version of Xen is this?


It's the currentl unstable amd64 binary tarball from www.xensource.com/downloads:
