If you need help with gentoo/amd64 and/or vserver, you're welcome to
contact me off-list via icq 7749229 (best idea) via google talk
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) or occasionally, i'm seen on freenode.net as
nickname infowolfe.

you may also email me privately if that is your wish, given a small
amount of time we can probably take care of your bugs ;-)

Hi there,

not "only" providers ;-)

not relating to the processor / kernel ;-)

I'm using a FC4 based vanilla 2.6.12.4 kernel (from kernel.org) with
vs2.0 patch and 0.30.208fix02 utils - this is running fine since I
found out the IA32_EMULATION option to get the 32bit guests running
;-)

This is now running proper since end August at this location, hosting
a couple of 32bit guests.

This is actually what I wanted to know, because i suspect that my
troubles may lie in a broken Gentoo installation or hardware errors.
Both are very likely at the moment.

First step will be to see whether I can get the server to run stable
with Gentoo AMD64 and no vserver. If thats a success, I will add
vserver-support and see what happens.

If I run into problems, I'll give you an update along with system
information.

several providers are already using vs2.0 on x86_64
(and I got zero bug/issue reports for that) so I
assume it's working quite fine ... what kernel do
you use and what kind of 'oopses' do you get?

maybe an oops trace might help to identify possible
issues and/or misconfigurations ...

TIA,

[Vserver] Vserver on Gentoo AMD64 system

2005-09-23 Thread Johnny Rose Carlsen
Hi,

Does anyone has any experience running Vserver on a Gentoo AMD64 system?

Gentoo advices one to only use the "gentoo-sources" kernel on AMD64,
because of some AMD64 patches. My install uses the "vserver-sources"
kernel, but my system definately have some troubles with oopses and
processes getting killed.

Does anyone have any good experiences?
