8.3. ia64 Architecture


  • Kernel modules such as e1000 and qla2xxx can now be unloaded while running the virtualized kernel. As such, you no longer need to reboot the system after installing third-party drivers.
  • The X server no longer attempts to utilize memory regions incompatible to its needs. This fixes a bug that previously caused a Machine Check Abort (MCA) on some Itanium systems.
  • A machine check error (which previously resulted in a dom0 reboot) no longer occurs when you attempt to run the virtualized kernel on systems that use the P600 SmartArray controller.
