Subject: [PATCH 1/3] lguest: document 32-bit and PAE requirements
Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2009 00:09:52 +0930 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200904160009.53570.rusty@rustcorp.com.au> (raw)
Impact: documentation update
Robert noted that we don't actually document that lguest is 32-bit only,
nor that PAE must be off (CONFIG_PAE is now prompted for if HIGHMEM is
set to "off).
