These distributions are: - Fedora Core 7 - Opensuse 10.2 - Gentoo 2007.0 - Slackware 11.0 - Ubuntu 6.06.1 Server - Ubuntu 7.04 Server - Centos 5.0 - Mandriva 2007 Could you tell me a way to install it as domU, please?

Hi All, The interface manual says - grant tables provide a generic mechanism sharing between domains. Subsequent lines suggest mechanism sharing between only unpriviliged domains. Can grant tables be used for this capability based shared memory communication between dom0 and domUs?

I have couple question about using Xen in the "real" world. My test box is a Dell Optiplex 745 with a Core 2 processor and 4 G of RAM. I am using 64 bit Centos 5 with Xen 3.03. Right now I have it set up so Dom0 is my working domain and I add other DomU for whatever tests i need to do. From what I''ve read here, this is not the best way to do things. So my first question is,

Various linux distros come with xen supported after a fashion with xen patches developed for one kernel hacked into the kernel they want to use (with varying degrees of success :-). We''ve been using xen for a while at work to try and provide development and testing platforms for a slew of different linux distros to check out our software under lots of different conditions. The

Hi all, I would like to know how to debug xen. To give some more informations, I would like to explain why I''d like to do this. I''ve compiled xen from source (3.1.x/unstable) and installed it on Debain etch. Furthermore I''ve installed 2 DomU, one HVM (Win2k3) and one EFW (Endian Firewall, RH-based 2.6.9-55 kernel). Both DomU''s are running fine for about 15

Hi all, I cannot start xend because of this error: Exception starting xend ((13, ''Permission denied'')). Do you know what could be wrong ?

Hello, is it possible to login into a DomU (Windows) without beeing logged in in the Dom0 on the same PC where Xen runs? So I want to have something like the Windows login screen on e. g. tty2 so I do not need to login twice (first in Dom0 and the second one in the DomU).

Hello, I can''t solve my problem. I want a 32 bits Lenny domU into a 64 bits Lenny dom0. I plan to use pygrub for that (xen 3.2.1).

I would have sworn that someone on the list had a way to Xenify a stock RH kernel but I was not able to dig it up on the archives. If this does not exist I am sure it would be a nice addition to Xen to be able to patch and build some kernels that are compatable with some of the popular distributions. -- Alvin Starr || voice: (416)585-9971 Interlink Connectivity ||
