Re: [Xen-devel] pci-passthrough and shared interrupts

[Ritu kaur <ritu.kaur.us@xxxxxxxxx>]

Pasi,

Installation/compilation of xen source on fedora core went through fine. I am facing an issue when dom0_mem is set to 1024M. During boot I get the message

/*********************
Panic on CPU 0
Not enough RAM for domain 0 allocation

**********************/

Same thing happens when dom0_mem is set to 512M

when dom0_mem is set to 256M,  I get following message

/***************************
Panic on CPU 0
Domain 0 allocation is too small for kernel image
****************************/

Is 8GB ram mandatory? In my machine it is 2GB ram, inputs appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks Konrad, I checked my old emails(back in March 2010) to see if I had tried this combination when I was testing xcp. I did try this combination and the problem I had faced was configuration errors due to IDE_DISK. I couldn't get past this problem. Snippets below

Yes.
