32-bit paravirt clients on 64-bit domU don't work well with centos,
either do 64 on 64, or use HVM, or 32 on 32.  At least that was
my experience when I tried it.

I am currently using a base Scientific Linux distro (which has the same upstream source and problems with 32 on 64 as centos does) in the dom0 and domU and then taking the Xen kernels and utilities from xen.org and running those in dom0 and domU. That works fine but it is a lot of work to get the new kernels in every time.

I've never tried windows or freebsd as a domU in the above configuration
or any other but I'm sure there are others around here that have.

So what other OS would you recommend if I want to run 32bit VM's on a 64bit OS? I'd prefer to also be able to run 32bit Windows & FreeBSD on the same Xen machine.
