Upstream Linux support Xen pv_ops dom0 is a good news. I have some question about that. When pv_ops gets into upstream kernel, we can enable pv_ops dom0 support in kernel configure file before compiling. Does Debian drop kernel for Xen in the future? In generic kernel, we can build in pv_ops support. If users want to use Xen, just install xen core and configure GRUB， then they can run Xen Dom0.
Is this solution available? 2010/10/31 Niccolò Belli <darkbas...@gmail.com> > OMG, I can't believe it.
