Hello, Has anybody tried Xen on VMware workstation ? Is there any reason this combination will not work ? I tried this on Fedora 3. I could install xen on VMware workstation running Linux Guest (Fedora 3). But Dom0 resets while booting half-way. Has anybody got this working ?

As I said, booting works, starting a domU works, but networking doesn''t.
