Re: [Xen-users] Help Please! 64bit Xen/CentOS_64 on quad-core Opteron 12

Thanks for suggestion. It just turned out that I set too little memory dom0 - 64M. I upped it to 128M and it boots okay now, although in the 32-bit world, 64M for dom0 and domU's work just fine.

In x86_64 based Xen, is the minimum memory for domains 128MB?

And just out of curiosity, is there a big difference between Fedora 64bit vs. CentOS 64bit? Not much I would think.

I would first suggest finding a Xen ready distribution and not hacking
it your self to work the first time. Best to try Fedora Core 5 x86-64.
Use the xen packages there (yum install xen kernel-xen0)  It will make
life easier. Then from their people can help you more.

Hi all,

I'm having a hell of a time trying to get 64 bit Xen on a machine
with 2 x dual core Opteron system with 12GB of RAM.  No matter what I
do, the dom0 boot bombs out with kernel panic saying low memory out
of space.

This is my first foray into the 64 bit land. In the 32 bit world,
everything worked okay, seemingly no matter what i do.

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance!!
