I have bee using Xen for a few months now on different systems. Kernel
2.6.15 with xen-3.0.1-4 has been stable for me on a few test machines and a
Dell Power Edge server. Today I installed FC5+xen on one of our beefier
machines the Proliant G3 DL380, dual Xeon 3ghz with 2GB ram. I keep having
kernel crashes with the following error below... any tips or advice would be
greatly apretiated. I tried kernel 2.6.20xxx and had kernel crashes with
that version as well. This machine has been running fine on CentOS 4.3 for
severval months.
Installed versions:
xen-3.0.1-4
kernel-xenU-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5
kernel-xen0-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5
Thanks!
