Xen devel - Jun 2006 - Cannot startup IA32/IA32pae VMX domain on IA32e platform

We cannot startup IA32/IA32pae unmodified linux guest OS. Booting
32bit VMX domain will stop at printing "ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP".
Booting 32pae VMX domain will get a kernel panic. No abnormal info
found in serial output.

It''s interesting that sometime we can boot Windows 2003. Booting
Windows SP1/SP2 Guest will crash with attached serial output.

These issues happen when we use default credit scheduler.

When we use bvt scheduler, we don''t see these issues.
