Regarding XEN requirements to run, I'd like to know if there is any
important reason to require i686-class cpus (ie: ppro, p2, etc.. and
k7...). In my limited understanding of 386 arch, ppro added
conditional moves and PAE, perhaps even huge-pages (have to check this
one). Is XEN explicitely (as in, used directly on assembler code)
using any of these?

My motivation is getting XEN to run on my (aging) k6 server machine.

Greets anyways :)
