Hi all,
I just did a fresh install of FC7 to see if xen would work out of the box.
Dom0 boots (with errors in the log - see below) and some Centos 4.4 domU
boots but are unseable (after recompiling the initrd image with the xen
driver preloaded) up to the famous long lasting error message "4gb seg
fixup". At that point it is dead
My question: what id the status of Xen for Fc7? Will it ever fly?
Is there a Linux distro that works out of the box ?
The last usable version I saw was for FC5 as of May 2006, after that all
version were badly broken and never fixed, I tested ALL of them for
fc5/fc6 and not a single one worked as published. Only home brewed
compiled version would work after weeks of trial and error.
Here what the log says from my out of the box install:
