Hello,
i have problems installing 64bit guests on a server runnning Vmware server 2. Here is the detailed information:
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9300 @ 2.50GHz
Host OS: Debian lenny 64bit
Vmware server: VMware-server-2.0.1-156745.x86_64.tar.gz
./VMware-guest64check-6.0.0-45731
This host is capable of running a 64-bit guest operating system under this
VMware product.
The server is located at a datacenter and there is no KVM switch, so i do not have access to the bios, but after i posted a ticket a technician has updated the bios to the latest version, has enabled the VT options in the bios and power cycled the machine. I tried to install Debian lenny 64 bit and CentOS 5.3 64 bit as guests but both are reporting that i should use a 32bit distribution. In the attachment is the log of the CentOS 5.3 64bit guest. I have also checked if Paravirtualization is enabled for that hosts and its NOT. They both are newly created VM's, actually everything is freshly installed.
I am totally confused, working more than 48h on that issue and i have no clue.
Thanks in advance for your help!
