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 -- Tim Verhoeven - tim.verhoeven.be at gmail.com - 0479 / 88 11 83 Hoping the problem magically goes away by ignoring it is the "microsoft approach to programming" and should never be allowed.
