Thread-topic: FreeBSD boot loader problem on VT-x

Hi there,

 

I tried unsuccessfully to boot FreeBSD HVM on VT-x hardware. Reading a couple of discussion on xen-devel list, I found that other people also have the same problem. The problem is identified with real mode emulation in VMXAssist. (http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2006-05/msg01300.html)

 

In May 2006, one post mentioned plans to replace VMX assist with full emulation. (http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2006-05/msg01442.html). I would like to know if there is a way to get the full emulation feature if available. If not, is there an alternative way to boot FreeBSD on VT-x.

 

Thanks,

Sanjee
