Xen users - Jun 2006 - amd64 dom0 with 32bits guest OS

Hi,

I have a Opteron server with Xen 3.0 and I need to install a 32bits guest
domain. Is it possible? Any doc on this topic?

dom0: Debian Sarge x86-64
domU: Debian Sarge 3.1

Thank you

Francois,

You cannot use a 32-bit DomU kernel with a 64-bit Dom0, but you can use 
a 32-bit DomU userspace, which in many cases is just as good.  I believe 
there are some caveats, however.  The biggest caveat, I''m aware of, is 
that some programs/scripts ("./configure" particularly) may detect the
64-bit processor.  Remember, /proc will still think you''re 64-bit :-)

This has been throughly discussed on this list before, the archives 
probably have a wealth of additional information.
