[Xen-users] Trouble trying to use vmware within XEN Dom0

["Ulrich Windl" <ulrich.windl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

it seems using vmware within XEN is the ultimate test for XEN. Unfortunately it 
does not work (SLES10 on x86_64 (latest) with VMware Server 1.0.1):

The Linux gets an Oops or panic:
Oct  6 11:05:34 rkdvmso1 kernel: CPU 2
