He did not seem particularly inclined to fix it. It may be that Xen's VT-x support is considered less interesting to his organization now that VMware is free (as in beer). -Kip On 7/11/06, Mohacsi Janos wrote: > Dear All, > Does anybody succeed to boot FreeBSD on an Intel Vanderpool > capable machine?
