So what is your actual problem then?

> (XEN) I/O virtualisation enabled
This means VT-d is enabled.

If you are wondering about:
> (XEN) I/O virtualisation for PV guests disabled
You may want to have a look at iommu=pv if that is what you need...


Best regards,

Hello,

my system: Intel DQ45CB with latest BIOS (0079 as of April 6th 2009) and VT-d enabled, Core 2 Quad Q9550 (E0), 8 GB RAM.

Tested with OpenSuse 11.1, packaged Kernel/Xen 3.3 and kernel opts "iommu=1", "iommu=1 msi=1", "dom0_mem=1024M iommu=1", "dom0_mem=1024M iommu=1 msi=1". System freezes on boot, last messages displayed are

(XEN) I/O virtualisation enabled
(XEN) I/O virtualisation for PV guests disabled

Installed Debian Lenny and compiled 2.6.18.8 / Xen 3.4rc3 - same result as above.

I'd like to help debugging this, but I'd need someone to help me setting up Serial-over-LAN with one of my other computers (Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, XP, Mac OS X 10.5).

Tim
