kvm-intel is the name of the module fox x86-intel. Do we have a collision here? Or is this supposed to load the x86 one on x86 and ia64 one on ia64? OK, I just saw your patches for Kconfig and Makefiles and we use CONFIG_KVM_INTEL for ia64 as well as x86. We should separate out these two before we run into troubles. > Userspace built: > > 1.

This step isn't needed if you build and install the kernel and plan to use the same modules. This is only needed if you want to upgrade kvm without upgrading the kernel or rebooting. > 5. make qemu > 6. make install > > Run guests with the command : > /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-ia64 -hda your.img -m 512 > > If you have any question, please feel free to contact me! > > Thanks > > Zhang Xiantao <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2007.12.19 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
