...but the emulated CPU is 32bit only?...
...digging...
...so we can change this... I didn't realise that.
Mine's i686 - would you mind confirming that if I flick this over to x86_64
this will really prevent my stretch/i686 VPS booting, as the wiki indicates?
I'm a bit surprised by this, as it means my only option is a full reinstall
which scares me (redoing all the configs).
TIA,
Ian

Subject: New installs of 32-bit guests are deprecated
Hi,
I've added a warning to the Xen Shell "install" command that new installs
of
32-bit guests are now deprecated, and pointing you to:
https://tools.bitfolk.com/wiki/64-bit_guests
Those of you with existing 32-bit guests, which I know is many of you,
should be okay for a few years yet. Even after the Xen hypervisor officially
ditches support for 32-bit guests we will ensure they are still bootable.
But I would encourage you to choose 64-bit at your next install or operating
system upgrade for an easier life.
Cheers,
Andy
