No Virtualization system - none of them - can do 64b guest without new hw support?
- Just to confirm this?.. This statement is correct?
- No Virtualization system - none of them - can do 64-bit guest without new hardware support (the intel VT and equivalent AMD)?
- It means if you have a typical 64-bit laptop (c early-2011), you can only run 32-bit guests under your 64-bit virtual farm?
I have a shuttle system at work, bought in early 2010 for around 1000 euros that runs 64 bit redhat, kvm, and 64 bit virtual machines. And the virtual machines are very cpu intensive, so i can tell you that they are using the 64 bit hardware natively.
