Hi, I need a kernel to install in guest systems in Xen. This kernel should NOT have the PAE option enable while the kernel was compiled. Does someone can tell me if all the kernels in Etch are compiled with this option enabled? Should I recompile a kernel for my guest systems or is it possible to download a kernel with PAE disabled? Thanks, Bernard
Do you already have Xen installed and running? If so, I'll assume you've managed to get it setup to run unmodified Guests. In which case you just need an ordinary Debian kernel, right? If so, I see two kernel packages.
linux-image-686 linux-image-686-bigmem 686 seems to be without PAE. 686-bigmem seems to be with PAE.These are for the x86 architecture, of course. I'm sure the names are similar for others.
If you don't have Xen installed and running, then that changes things. =)
And one question I have for anyone out there: Does the Debian Xen package have VMX support enabled for running unmodified Guests?
