It is underdocumented (most HOWTOs explains how to run an OS with Xen and assume that dom0 and domU use this OS) but it works. I currently run a dom0 Debian which hosts domU running Ubuntu, Gentoo and ttylinux. > Is there a way to do this? You need to find an image of the guest OS somewhere (two very good sources: http://jailtime.org/ and http://www.xen-get.org/) or to build it yourself if you have a machine with the guest OS. In your case, you can simply transfer the existing files to the Xen machines and then to boot the guest. (True, there are some details which I did not mention but, most of the times, it works.) _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
