When I try to create WinXP or Win2003 VMX, the boot hangs.
Running on x86_64 with changeset 10641.
qemu-dm.xxx.log shows:
Booting from CD-Rom...
should never reach here in function address():
entry=0x0000000000000000, mode=1, seg=0x000022F3, offset=0x000014F8
Halt called from %eip 0xD3AAA
Anyone know what''s happening here?> Thanks,

But it would be helpful to know: 1. Which version of Xen are you using? I have had success with pulling xen-unstable.tar.gz and updating with mercurial. 2. Which Linux distribution are you use? I''ve had success with FC5 3. What hardware are you using? Does both the motherboard and CPU(s) have VT support? 4. What does your configuration file look like? --Jim _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

I can''t really say what causes it tho'' (other than obviously that it wasn''t meant to happen). It is possibly caused by confusion between the modes, since Intel hasn''t got "paged realmode", they have to use virtual 8086 mode to run real-mode, which causes some problems when it comes to mixing real-mode and protected mode...

Yes, as Mats indicated, we are running VT on Unisys/one with SLES10RC2.5 updated to unstable changeset 10641. We also cannot boot a Darn :) Small Linux VMX and qemu-dm.xxx.log shows: Booting from CD-Rom...
