Hi all,

I want to use xen and the virtualisation tools provided in FC7.  This
will be running on my laptop, which has no PAE support, since the max
ram = 2GB.

I'm in the same situation and just wanted to wish you good luck with
this project and kindly ask you to make the necessary changes
available in one way or another to everyone else that is in the same
situation.

I already rebuilded the kerne-xen package, and removed pae support.

kernel-xen.spec line 94

%ifarch i686
%define buildpae 0
%define builddebug 0
# we build always xen HV with pae
%define xen_flags verbose=y crash_debug=y    <--- change this line,
remove the pae bit
%endif

And in SOURCES/kernel-2.6.20-i686-xen.config at the end

# CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G is not set
CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y

But when installing an new xen guest with virt-manager, this doesn't
work.  I've setup a local repo, and now i'm looking to get rid of the
pae stuff that is builtin the <pathtorepo>/images/xen/[vmlinuz|
initrd.img]

Overwriting the vmlinuz with the kernel I rebuild with the above steps
doesnt't work well.

Searching the web didn't get me to a solution.

Could someone please direct me to a solution ?  I've looked into
anaconda, revision etc, but still cannot figure out how to fix my
problem.

Thanks

Johan
