> Is there anybody out there who got XEN3 to work under OpenSuse 10.2
Out of interest, have you tried the Xen3 that''s distributed as part of
OpenSuse 10.2? That ought to work with the least amount of effort.
However, I guess you may be trying to get a newer version of Xen, so lets get
on with solving your problem ;-)

On 32-bit, Xen and dom0''s kernel need to match memory modes: either
they must
both use PAE, or neither of them.
You can make sure Xen is built with PAE support using:
XEN_TARGET_X86_PAE=y
or
XEN_TARGET_X86_PAE=n to switch it off.
y is the default.
If you''re using a custom config for Linux, you need to make sure that
you''ve
enabled PAE - the option is called something like CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G and is in
the "high memory support" section of "Processor Type and
Features".
Make sure that either you enable PAE in Xen and 64G highmem in Linux, or you
don''t enable either. Once you''ve got the matching Xen and
Linux you''ll be
able to boot.
If you want to run other Linux distros, or you have a large memory system
it''s
probably a good idea to run PAE. RHEL, CentOS, Fedora, all use PAE only for
their Xen kernels.
