[Xen-users] 32-on-64 and PVGRUB

[Luke S Crawford <lsc@xxxxxxxxx>]

so it appears that PVGRUB requires that I specifiy (in my
domain config file) either the -x86_64  or the -x86_32 
version.   

Does anyone have a clever way I can let my users switch 
between x86_64 and i386 without giving them access to 
the domain config file?  Preferably, something more secure 
than PyGRUB?   

I was considering hacking up PyGRUB so that it  only 
allows the user a choice of PVGRUB 32 and 64, but that 
would make things more complex, and I'm not sure how much
more secure that would be (over just using PyGRUB.)

Other than that, I like PVGRUB-  I can have it boot
to a menu.lst on a read-only partition, so it is impossibe
for a user to mess up the menu.lst to the point they
can't get into the rescue image, then I have it default
to re-calling PVGRUB with the user's menu.lst.
