Which virtualization software would y'all use for something like this. I
have some limited experience with xen but I really don't have a
preference. No need to run windows.
CPU is a P4 (non VT).
And which distro would you use for a host system?
Although you don't need to do M$ Windows, do you need/want to do a GUI?
If so, I would recommend either VirtualBox <http://www.virtualbox.org>
or VMware <http://www.vmware.com>. If no GUI is required then Xen is a
good choice. You can't do KVM because your processor doesn't support it.
I would use CentOS for the host system due to built in Xen and it's long
term support.
