Re: [bitfolk] A reminder for those upgrading 32-bit Debian guests

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 On Tue, 4 Jan 2022, at 15:28, Paul Tansom wrote: > 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. > > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > users(a)lists.bitfolk.com > https://lists.bitfolk.com/mailman/listinfo/users >
