+for us to write drivers for "legacy" hardware. It is likely that some
+desktop chipsets will fail to work properly with the default Xen
+configuration: specifying 'noacpi' or 'ignorebiostables' when booting
+Xen may help in these cases.
Xen requires a "P6" or newer processor (e.g. Pentium Pro, Celeron,
Pentium II, Pentium III, Pentium IV, Xeon, AMD Athlon, AMD Duron).
