I have it working, got it sorted out a couple of weeks ago. I installed a newer kernel
(5.3.0) from the ubuntu repository along with grub-pc, and switched over to PVH no
problem. Switching between PV and PVH is just a single command in Xen, so pretty easy to
switch between them if booting fails.
Hope that helps,
Anna

You say that's no problem for Ubuntu as
there's been no support for some time, but I'm running Ubuntu 18.04, i686 in PV
mode. I'm reading up with a plan to either switch over manually (trying to get my head
around the instructions and fallback options if it goes wrong) or preferably migrate to a
new 64 bit Ubuntu 20.04 host (although 2 weeks seems quite tight given I am currently
balancing work, with family and looking after my dad).
So, some quick questions:
- has Ubuntu 18.04 i686 been tested under PVH?
- a previous email talked about needing support if the switch on an existing 32bit goes
wrong, but the PVH web page talks about switching back; am I right in thinking that you
can switch back and then get support or is the support to get your VPS working again?
Switching to 64bit is my plan, with 32bit PVH as a temporary fall back, so just trying to
get my ducks in a row first.
