Hi, It seems that all the FreeBSD and NetBSD Xen howtos I can find are for Xen version 2 - are there any up to date resources for running FreeBSD and NetBSD on Xen (domU)? More specifically, I want to run them as guests on a system running Xen 3.0.2 / Linux 2.6.16 (Debian sarge) as dom0.>From what I''ve found, apparently FreeBSD -STABLE and NetBSD -currentboth support Xen 3, but more detailed documentation is scarce.

But the stuff which is here: http://www.fsmware.com/xenofreebsd/7.0/download/config/xmexample1.bsd certainly works for me as a domU (with SUSE as dom0). -- Roger Whittaker Primary Support Engineer rwhittaker@novell.com 01344 326116 07802 357081 Novell, Inc.
