[Xen-users] Xen 32bit DomainU on Xen 64bit Domain0, is it possible?
Hi! I have a opteron machine running in 64bit mode. I would like to set up a Domain0 at 64bit and run 32bit domainU''s on top to use with other 32bit domains in regular x86 boxes for clustering.. Is this scenario possible, considering the use of Xen3 ?

However, you can use a 32 bit distro with a 64 bit kernel just fine.
