I do not know if someone out there had/have this problems.
We have two HP-bl20p-G4 2xQuadCore Xeon E5320 Intel cpu's Blade. with following software on it
- centos 5.1 x86_64
- xen hypervisior 3.1 from centos distri.
And run on it following guests: 32bit centos4.6 domU's with xen_domU_kernel from update repo.
Some of this machines are running fine and some of this are dying sometimes under load or no load. It look's for me strange.
So my question is there a basic problem to run domU32 bit systems on a 64bit hardware ? If i read the newest messages on xen this is now a big goal for xen 3.1 but i know it can be a bug or a misunderstood config on my side.
Hopefully someone out there can help me with this problem.

Hi Michael,
Support for running 32 bit Paravirt Xen VM's on a 64bit host was added to 5.1 as a technology preview by the upstream provider. This means that this has not been fully tested and is not supported.
I've also have been testing this and I had the same issues. Most of the times I could not even get a install to finish.
So I guess the best thing to do is to create tickets for this in the upstreams bugzilla and hope they have fixed the issues for 5.2
Regards, Tim
