Hi, I just fetched xen-unstable sources and build it. Having boot the system, I cannot find the vmx cpu flag in /proc/cpuinfo file, however, my CPU is Intel E6550 with VT support, and the flag appears when I use the kernel and xen shiped with CentOS 5.2. I wonder whether it''s the problem of config of dom0 kernel or xen? Any suggestion? Thank you! -- Wang Xu _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

And on this chip, when I used CentOS kernel and xen, it could run Windows in hvm mode. -- Wang Xu Groucho Marx - "A hospital bed is a parked taxi with the meter running." _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
Hello, You most likely need to enable it in your motherboard. Not all support it though. I had an Asus one with an E6600 and I had to flash the BIOS for it to be enabled properly (got me remembering how horribly bad floppies are).

And I can see much less cpu flags when I am using xen-unstable than using those shipped with CentOS 5.2. what did this mean.>> I just fetched xen-unstable sources and build it.
