Re: [Xen-users] dev86 for HVM

[Boris Derzhavets <bderzhavets@xxxxxxxxx>]

I just installed everything during initial install
xen-disabled CentOS 5.2 instance from DVD.

Xen 3.2.1 been compiled from source did install "hvmloader".
Same results produced port:-

It's for sure. However,Xen 3.2.1 port to F8 required dev86 :-

regardless everything was installed from DVD for xen-disabled F8
instance.
 
I've compiled Xen 3.3 on CentOS 5.2 about month ago, previously
installed only the most recent "git" version.

In this case i am not sure about "hvmloader", because
switched to Xen 3.3 port via http://www.gitco.de/repo/xen3.3.0 to
to CentOS 5.2 pretty soon.

Anyway,thanks a lot for your link.

Weird.  I had a different experience compiling xen 3.3 on CentOS5.

http://book.xen.prgmr.com/mediawiki/index.php/3.3

it compiled just fine without dev86, but it (almost silently) skipped
compiling hvmloader, so I couldn't run HVM domains until I went back,
installed dev86 and recompilied tools.
