RE: [Xen-ia64-devel] Hi, a question about 32bit OS running at xen-ia64

2006-07-27 Thread Zhang, Xiantao









Hi Tom,

 Currently, 32 bit
OS couldn’t be run on xen-ia64 due to different architectures between IA32
and IA64. 32 bit application should work well in 64 bit guest with BT
technology. 

Anyway, your idea is very
good. Maybe somebody will implement it in future. 



Thanks  Best Regards

hi,guys.

















 I guess it may seempretty much weird.
I am not sure if 32bit OS such as 32bit Red Hat Linux distribution can run at
xen-ia64?











 I really appreciate any suggestion, thanks
a million.

Hi, Tom

Xen-ia64 support only ia64 OS.
Xen-x86_64 can support both x86_64 OS and x86_32 OS.

Best Regards,

RE: [Xen-ia64-devel] Hi, a question about 32bit OS running at xen-ia64

2006-07-27 Thread Magenheimer, Dan (HP Labs Fort Collins)
If you are trying to run a specific app that runs
on 32bit Red Hat Linux (without porting or recompiling),
you may be able to run it using ia32el (the Intel IA-32
Execution Layer**) on a Red Hat ia64 guest OS running
on xen-ia64.  However as others have pointed out,
xen-ia64 doesn't support running 32 bit OS's directly.

Has anybody in the Xen/ia64 community tried ia32el either
on a PV guest or a vti guest?

Dan

** Google doesn't reveal much information on ia32el which
might imply it is not widely used.  This link might help:
http://www.gelato.org/community/view_linear.php?id=10_146
Others at Intel might be able to point to better docs.
