Xen ARM requires virtualization extension in order to work. AFAICT this board is using Cortex A-9 which doesn't have virtualization extension. I suspect the demo was done with the Xen ARM PV port [3] which is not maintained. > If Xen can run on the board, we want to test how the RTDS real-time > scheduler works on the ARM board. FIY, You can find a list of ARM board where we know that Xen boots on the wiki: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_ARM_with_Virtualization_Extensions#Hardware > Thank you very much for your time in answering this question! > > Best regards, Regards, [3] http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Archived/Xen_ARM_(PV) -- Julien Grall
