Hi!
with this .spec file, I get a brand new kernel from source with PAE
disabled but I always get "PAE mode mismatch between Xen and DOM0
(xen=no, dom0=yes) when I try to start it!
Where''s the mistake?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your reply Robert. Any help/idea is *REALLY* appreciated. The problem is that I don''t want PAE enabled :) Fedora provides both kernel & HV RPMs with PAE enabled. I''m actually trying to build both kernel & HV from Fedora''s RPMs in order to disable PAE support but I can''t get them working as I always stop @ the same point. "PAE mismatch between xen and dom0 (xen=no dom0=yes)" when loading my brand new kernel. As you can see from the .spec file I''ve posted, I''ve disabled any PAE-related flag. So, now, I have a lot of doubts: 1) Why it happens? 2) What does it exactly mean with dom0=yes? 3) Does Fedora RPMs include, build and install also the hypervisor? 4) Why Fedora Xen RPMs .spec file doesn''t talk about PAE support? 5) ... and so on ... Please help me...I''m going crazy! :) Andrea On 2/2/07, Robert Hatch <robert.hatch@terebellum.co.uk> wrote:> Have you installed the PAE hypervisor?

I would like to have PAE off in my dom0 cause I think that is the reason why I''m unable to start my old FC3 domU. I know that it would probably go fine if I choose the XenSource way but I really want to find an answer to this question...is it impossible to build both Kernel & HV with PAE disabled starting from SRPMs using FC6? Why if I turn off PAE in the .spec file I always get PAE mismatch error (dom0=yes)? How could dom0 be PAE enabled if I''m rebuilding kernels? Second thing is that I would like not to lose Fedora''s updates to Kernel & HV and going for the SRPMs is the only way to get this. There must be a way :) Thanks again, Andrea On 2/3/07, Robert Hatch <robert.hatch@terebellum-networks.com> wrote:> Can I ask why you want pae off?

Probably I''ve found the issue! When rpmbuild goes for building the -xen version of the kernel it uses the -xen.config file and it doesn''t care about pae_flags in .spec file! PAE is enabled by default! [root@localhost linux-2.6.19.i686]# cat .config | grep PAE CONFIG_X86_PAE=y [root@localhost linux-2.6.19.i686]# I''ll come back tomorrow with my test results and details about what I''ve discovered.
