RE: HP Itanium Woes....



Jason –

 

This page on Wikipedia lists a couple virtual systems that support IA-64, including Xen (port in progress) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_virtual_machines

 

QEMU sez it does…  Open VS looks possible,  xen might be be nice. Still need a host OS tho.

 

There is no longer a cu windows list (used to be nt list, however there is a virtualization list - protected address

Subject: HP Itanium Woes....

 

Hello Gang,

So, first off, is there a CU Windows List?

So I wrote that I got an HP Integrity rx2600 server with 16GB of RAM and Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition for Itanium processors.

There is no software for it!! NONE!

There are others like QEMU which I cannot get to work.

HP says that Redhat Enterprise is supported, so is SUSE Enterprise, HP/UX, OpenVMS

But since I am not at Campus anymore I cannot obtain Redhat. I tried Suse Enterprise Trial, but my system does not seem to recognize the DVD  (from the EFI-Shell)

Even Java from SUN, I have to compile my own ia-64 version (and I dont own an old copy of Visual Studio 6, just VS 2005 Standard Edition)

Does anyone have any thoughts for me? Not being able to virtualize is really holding up my progress work wise at this point.

Thanks!

Jason
