Indication was when they supported (or just forced, cant remember witch) Virtualization only on x86_64 on RHEL/CentOS 5.x.
They only support KVM as a host technology for virtualization now. KVM requires the CPU virtualization extensions to function. The functions are only available on the CPU when in 64bit (long) mode.
There are sound technical reasons for this and it wasn't just them being stubborn to drop an architecture. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
I had (and still do) rpm packages (kvm-84-1.i386) for KVM on 32-bit platform, made by L. Farkas. I used it successfully up to 5.4 (I think) when I reinstalled my server and used x86_64 version. Maybe those requirements are of the newer date?
