Against 2.6.24.4-64.fc8 it works.
2.6.24.4-64.fc8PAE with kvm-66 module seems to work OK.
I guess that solves that little problem?

Yes, that is very easy isn't it. Oops to my stupidity. I've got it built

Please don't flame on kvm-devel, even if the flames are self-directed.
Er, OK...

You just need to install kernel-PAE-devel package, and then build against that.

Hi,
I was able to boot and install Soarlis 10 U4 but since upgraded the host,
I have issues.
Host:
Fedora 8 - 2.6.24.4-64.fc8PAE SMP
CPU AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+
32 bit
Previously:
2.6.24.4-64.fc8
Running the standard F8 KVM kernel drivers, with either 65 or 66
KVM-65/66 has some bugs on AMD. I suggest you to degrade to KVM-64 for
stability.
Other than that, only Solaris-10 32-bit is supposed to work fine,
while Solaris 64-bit will need some patches to KVM to work at all.

Also crashes (userland kvm-64, kernel F8). It is Solaris 32bit.
Does the 32bit host running PAE cause any issues ?

What bugs?
Also note Ian (which you don't quote or copy) reports success with
kvm-65 userspace on a non-pae kernel.

I have 4GB (just upgraded from 1GB), hence running PAE else Linux is only
enable to use ~3GB.
By mem=2000 I assume you mean on the Host?
If so, I might as well drop back to

If it works, this provides a clue as to what goes wrong, and we can fix
it.
Are these known issues? Can I do anything to help/test which might
make it work for other people?
Just let us know if it works
