This ends in a kernel panic, complaining:
“<0> Kernel panic: Attempted to kill the idle task! In idle task – not
syncing”
We ran into the same problem. The default kernel for RH7.2 is patched
to support "MXT" (automatic compression to/from RAM), and the HVM bios
confuses it.
Upgrade the kernel to one that doesn't have MXT (such as
kernel-smp-2.4.20-28.7) and you'll be fine.
There may also be a boot param to tell the kernel to ignore MXT, which
would likely have the same effect.
