Is your architecture x86 compatible, or is it separate? Are you looking to run Xen on top of your new arch or do you want to emulated this architecture in Xen? If you are trying to do the latter, QEMU might be a better fit for you: Xen is really about virtualization, not ISA emulation. If you are just trying to port Xen to a new architecture, then you might want to start by reading the Xen on ARM whitepaper (http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_ARM_with_Virtualization_Extensions_whitepaper) that I wrote to summarize the principal design choices made during the Xen port to ARM. _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xen.org http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
