[Xen-users] Re: AMD SVN and Xen3
Thanks for the Info, Mr. Godawa :)
I installed Debian "Etch" for i386 (486 basically, however 32 Bit.)
Paravirtualized OS:
Installing a paravirtualized Debian "Sarge" using debootstrap didn't
perform that well... dunno if its because of the GCC-4'ish "Etch" or
whatever. The domains don't come up that well (but they are booting to a
certain point then just freeze. Will fiddle around with that later)
Hardware virtualized OS (HVM):
Works basically like a charm... there are a few quirks, but WinXP
(without SPs) installed without _any_ special help. When using vnc its
like sitting in front of it. After all Windows came up without problems.
Quirks:
- The mouse problem when using vnc
- the problem with "Zombied" domains when shutting down or rebooting one
I guess for both problems exist workarounds. Till now I haven't had time
for searching them. Next week will be the time. :)
Basically I want to announce that AMD Athlon64 CPUs with Stepping F
(without the Semperons) are HVM-capable. Due to the fact that all
HVM-needed things are inside the CPU (not like VT - CPU and
Northbridge). Can someone please add them to the list of capable CPUs?
Tested with an Athlon64 X2 4600+
More within the next week.
Maybe someone has one or two links for the remaining problems? :)
Regards, Bigfoot29
