Re: xenguest-install.py - Error Bad file descriptor in FC6 Test2 DomU and Dom0

[shobha ranganathan <shobha_ranganathan@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks a bunch. I see the ERROR in log as "PAE kernel on non PAE host"

 

So I should do "make world pae=y"  and "make install" ??

Hi there,
Take a look at /var/log/xend-debug.log; is there something that talks about trying to run a PAE domU on a non-PAE hypervisor? If so, you need to recompile your dom0 to use pae (when you compile, put pae=y on the command-line). All of the FC6 paravirt kernels are PAE, and these need to match.
