It seems I got little attention with my original post.
The f8 64bit image hangs when starting X. Prior to that
the visual 'wait' circle keeps running around irregularily

I observed the same on multi core AMD running RHEL 4, which
was cured with RHEL 5. So no I am happy on that multi-core
workstation.
But this new server I was trying to set up had definite problems
with the -21 xen kernel. It runs flawlessly with the f8 release
kernel (-23).
For testing, where should I pull down a newer xen-kernel that would
run with a full 64 bit f8 install? I would be happy to be a guinea pig
(as long as I can revert) using this system if I could be pointed to
repositories and forum where I could contribute..
I'm afraid the 2.6.21 series of kernel-xen will be the newest
we release for F-8 and earlier - its in bugfix only mode[1]. If there
is an easy bugfix we can do for 2.6.21 to make it work that's a
possiblity but we won't be doing .22 or .23 kernel-xen. I'd recommend
filing a BZ ticket with as many details of the problem you are seeing
as possible:
Thanks for a quick response, even if it doesn't really help me.
The system also won't boot in i386 mode with the latest BIOS, so I will
run non-virtualized 64 bit for testing purposes until you have a testable
xen enabled kernel for -25 (?) available and forgo the bug report.
Thanks again,
George
