[Fedora-xen] Are 64bit Intel Core 2 Quad fedora 8 supported?

[Dustin Henning]

	I am not running F8, all of my DomUs are HVM, and I am not running
64-bit OSes on any of them, so I was staying out of this one, but I am
running F7 64-bit with Xen kernel 2.6.21-6 on a Core 2 Quad, and since you
are having problems even with 32-bit PV guests, I thought that this might be
useful information.  Perhaps you have some sort of BIOS configuration issue
or something.

FWIW: I'm running F8 64-bit 2.6.21-2952, for both Dom0 and one DomU, on 
6600/Core 2 Duo, without problems. The DomU is HVM; it was originally PV 
but I gave up on that for complex reasons. Various other (non-Fedora) 
HVM domU's also work without problems.

Maybe it's just an issue with quad core. Can you turn off two cores in 
the BIOS?
