Hi, I´ve been using Xen 2 for a while now and i´m ready for the new 3.0 stuff. Because i´m a fan of www.howtoforge.com <http://www.howtoforge.com/> I tried: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_xen3_debian. Trying to build Xen on Debian Sarge using a brand new Sun fire X2100 I immediately ran into trouble: cc1: sorry, unimplemented: 64-bit mode not compiled in I have a 32bit install running a 64 bit kernel (2.6.8-12-amd64-generic) So I guess the packaged gcc was build without 64bit support, no problem. On the neighbours mailinglist (developers) I came across the "make XEN_COMPILE_ARCH=x86_32" tip, very helpful! It then compiled great! Even downloaded a new kernel for me. However, the howto states that I go into the kernel dir and do the menuconfig. Using: cd linux-2.6.16-xen0 ARCH=xen export ARCH make oldconfig make menuconfig But in there is no xen arch in this tree, only the x86_64 arch! I´m lost! Can someone give me pointers on how to proceed? I want to compile a new kernel because I want quota, iptables and dummy netdriver.

RE: [Xen-users] Sarge: Xen 3.0.2-2 on Opteron 64bit
No worries... The howto was for 3.0.1 not 3.0.2! Downloaded the 3.0.1 and now I can follow te procedure.
