I installed and played with it on an intel box. On z platform, it
requires a build as I could not find a binary for that. Has anyone built
it or found a link for the binary?
Thanks

Hello from Gregg C Levine
Indeed.
I remember spending an interesting several hours at their NYC offices,
one of the scheduled items that were discussed was indeed Xen. It
happens I raised that very same issue. They did confirm that the only
way to manage something when using Xen and their OS, was to install
Linux first, and then their OS.

Sun internally had it working for some time now. However, it is now
publicly available for OpenSolaris. For the moment, you still can't

have

a Solaris dom0, only a domU.

Xen isn't Linux specific. Nor does it share a kernel. Xen is a

close

to it when running on a generic x86. Performance is generally

within

2-3% of native as a result of the para-virtualisation techniques

with a Xen aware kernel on a non VT capable processor.

It is indeed free software.

and SUN reports booting Solaris under it. _I_ am looking forward to
booting Windows XP, and Mac OS X would be handy too.
