Now there is something you should know before trying this out. If you
get it running (aka download the XenServer Express) copy the ISO with PV
drivers and put the iso link in your config file. (This all answers your
question.)

There is a license agreement that you *should not use* this with any
other product. I guess this includes the Open Source version. Since I
thought I could ignore this license agreement, because such things are
not valid in my tiny country, I noticed that the next boot of Windows
included a message that a "service could not be started", and that I
had
some PCI Xen device. A SCSI device driver with an exclamation mark and
it all didn''t feel better than before.


So... register yourself as Xen Express user you will find the iso no
doubt and see for yourself. You probably want to run Xen Express to, to
make a real judgment. I sincerely hope the KVM guys will make some Open
Source PV drivers that can work with Xen too and otherwise we should
wait for ''Windows Virtualisation'' which does everything
natively ;)

I''ve written some PV block device drivers for windows (see recent email
to -dev list). Very very alpha at this stage (eg it barely works), but
it should get more stable pretty rapidy (I think I''ve found the main
cause of the instability - I''m breaking lots of WinDDK rules about when
I can wait and call certain functions etc)
