We have an Intel VT system, and we have successfully installed Xen 3.0 on it, but we cannot find out how to run Windows as a guest OS. Someone on this mailing list has successfully done it, but did not say how. Thanks, - Hao _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

They are on processor lists at Intel web site. But where to get them, I don''t know.

I have an operating system I need to test with Xen. I am told I need to have Intel VT hardware but I can not find anyone selling such hardware. Can anyone help with finding Intel VT hardware. What model Dell Poweredge systems are VT enabled? I could not find any mention of VT on Dell''s web site. Where do they say that the Xeon in Poweredge servers are VT enabled? - Christophe PAINCHAUD wrote: - You can order Dell PowerEdge servers with Intel dual core Xeon, I guess these - are VT enabled since I don''t any non-VT Dual Core Xeon ... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

RE: [Xen-users] How to run Windows on Xen 3.0 with VT
As of a couple of weeks ago, the best information I could Google indicated that the VT chips would start shipping early in Q1 of 2006. Right now there are only a handful of sample chips on the streets and I think it''s safe to say the average person can''t get a hold of one. My personal guess is Intel VT chips will be available to the public in February. As far as I can tell, AMD Pacifica chips are due out late in Q2 2006. But I have no idea if Xen''s Pacifica support is as mature as it''s VT support.

Dell is selling its 1850 with Dual Core Xeons. Those are supposed to be VT enabled.
