  • Thread-topic: HVM: -k7 kernel not working, -486 or -686 works

I'm testing some Linux VM's under HVM. The physical machine is an amd64
and the kernel is -amd64. Xen is 3.1.0

The Debian installer under HVM said that the -k7 flavour of kernel would
be the best one to use, but when it boots it just hangs after the
'Uncompressing Linux... OK Booting Kernel' message. No amount of mucking
around with apic and acpi kernel parameters makes any difference.

I then installed a -486 kernel just to get it booting, which worked, and
a -686 kernel also works.

Any reason why the -k7 kernel wouldn't work?

Thanks

James
