Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] Problem bringing up 32-bit Sles 9 on a Dom-VT
Yunfeng,

Thanks. It was indeed a multi-proc kernel issue. We did not realise that
the SUSE install program was installing a smp kernel by default.
How do you guys normally create your installs? Do you perform a standard
install off a cdrom (basically treating the DOM-VT as a standard uniproc
machine?) or do you use a downloaded disk image?

Thanks
Raj

Hi,Raj
There should be no problem to install and boot sles9 ia32 guest on xen
x86_64.I had tried this against 9251 and didn't meet any problem.
Can you check if the guest uses up kernel? If it's smp kernel, it's
possible that you cannot boot it up.
Please also try to switch the console of guest with Ctrl+Alt+Fx and see
if have any error messages printed?

And a SLES9 IA32 guest image also could be downloaded from the link
blow.

thanks
Yunfeng
