Pkg xen devel - Apr 2009 - Bug#525169: xen-utils-3.2-1: FreeBSD (possbly others) do not work in Xen 3.2-1 due to real mode emulation bugs

Package: xen-utils-3.2-1
Version: 3.2.1-2
Severity: important

Intel processors have a bug with Vt that causes problems with Xen real-mode
emulation. This renders FreeBSD
(and possibly other OS'es) unbootable in Xen with HVM. Later versions of Xen
3.2 (and 3.3) emulate
real-mode instructions so this problem doesn't exist. I would provide the
relevant patches, but I do not
have much familiarity with the Xen source code :(.
