Re: [tboot-devel] any version combination worked for xeon 5620?

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Here it is.

menuentry "GNU/Linux Test Tboot, linux 2.6.38.8_test-x64_1.0" {
        set root='(hd0,1)'
        multiboot /boot/tboot.gz /boot/tboot.gz logging=vga,memory,serial
vga_delay=5
        module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.38.8_test-x64_1.0
/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.38.8_test-x64_1.0 root=/dev/sda1 ro console=tty0
console=ttyS0,115200 intel_iommu=on
        module /boot/Xeon-5600-3500-SINIT-v1.1.bin
}

The machine has 16GB ram, could that be a problem for tboot?

Best wishes,
