Yes, this is from my blog. Thanks for reading :). And yes, we can run Windows HVM on Solaris dom0 now. BTW, I did a little bit correction on the translation below... Thanks, Max W.

Hi Wayne, I''m running Windows XP Home on Xen/Nevada. The CPU is Core2Duo 1.8GHz, performance is ok. Attached is the config file. Rgds, Andre W. W.
