[Xen-users] Xen 3.0 crashes during boot on dual P3 - With option "nosmp" it works
Hi everyone, I''m trying to get xen running on my dualmachine. The MoBo is a MSI 694D Pro with two Pentium 3 CPUs: root@gisele:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 8 model name : Pentium III (Coppermine) stepping : 10 cpu MHz : 1002.279 cache size : 256 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : yes f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 2 wp : yes flags : fpu tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr sse bogomips : 2507.26 The xen-binaries are from deb http://packages.debianbase.de/sarge/i386/xen3/ ./ because I''m running a Debian/Sarge box. The dom0-kernel is homemade using the linux-2.6-xen.hg merged-tree. I''ve done this way severel times on other machines, runnig into no problems. The problems I''m runnig in is a complete systemhang during boottime. It happens after the Message [ 0.000000] Linux version 2.6.15-2cpu-xen0 (root@gisele) (gcc-Version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13)) #8 SMP Mon Jan 23 14:06:46 CET 2006 [ 0.000000] BIOS-provided physical RAM map: [ 0.000000] Xen: 0000000000000000 - 0000000004000000 (usable) [ 0.000000] 0MB HIGHMEM available.

But without "nosmp" the kernel hangs after saying "Brought up 2 CPUs" I''ve tested all the xen options like "lapic, nolapic, noapic, acpi=off" but nothing works. I''ve searched the archives but didn''t find anything suitable. My .config is attached. So please help me, I don''t know what to do!
