Red Hat have decided to require PAE (CPU support for more than 4GB of 
RAM) in their xen kernels for RHEL5. My VIA Nehemiah CPU doesn't have 
PAE, even though almost all Intel CPUs since the Pentium Pro (invented 
when 64MB of RAM cost major ?$?) do. I was rather hoping to upgrade to 
EL5 and stop having to build my own kernels, but I can't and it's VIA's 
fault. Grrr.

Cheers,

John.
