Xen devel - Mar 2010 - Xen and dom0 in a USB storage device

Hi all,

Can Xen and Dom0 be placed in a USB storage device, and use this device to boot
a host? Then the original host system (with OS previously installed) will be a
guest VM (HVM).

Anyone updates me please.

Cordially,
Shawn

Yes you can do that easily be checking out to do that with linux
first, and it''s easy
to add xen on it as well.
Then in your vm config file you can specify to use a physical
partition as a disk for your vm.
