This is my config file with which it fails:

I wonder if changing the last line would fix this.
Using centos 5 with these versions:

rpm -qa | grep xen
kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5
xen-3.4.2-2.el5
kmod-drbd83-xen-8.3.5-1.el5
xen-devel-3.4.2-2.el5
kmod-fuse-xen-2.7.4-21.el5
kernel-xen-devel-2.6.18-194.3.1.el5
kernel-xen-2.6.18-194.3.1.el5
kernel-xen-devel-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5
xen-libs-3.4.2-2.el5



Linux hostname 2.6.18-164.9.1.el5xen #1 SMP Tue Dec 15 TIME TIMEZONE 2009 x=
86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux



processor       : 0
vendor_id       : AuthenticAMD
cpu family      : 15
model           : 67



As far as I have read this cpu should work.


Any ideas on how to fix this issue?
