Running KVM on rhel4

Hi,

I've been asked to setup KVM on a rhel4 cluster. Are there any issues as to which KVM versions are usable with rhel4 (kernel 2.6.9)? Obviously, in this case we would be compiling our own module and userspace.

Thanks,
Cam

You need a more recent kernel then 2.6.9 in order to detect the VT feature on the processor which is needed by kvm.

The release notes for KVM-55 indicate that it can run on 2.6.9 (ver 56 jumps to 2.6.17), so if I use KVM-55 modules and userspace it will run, correct?

Thanks,
