I run 2.0.7 on the server box using multiple independent partitons and swap partitions. None of this logical volume stuff for me (*). Note that my system is a KANOTIX disk system, suitably updated with what packages I need. I nicked and adapted the appropriate info from here: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_xen_setup_debian_ubuntu I seem to recall that there are people who have gotten Xen to work on SuSE 9.3 but I also seem to recall that there were lots of hiccoughs in getting it done. Can't seem to find the posts on the mailing list at the moment though. SUSE 10 (what I wanted to use in the first place but can't get it on the server) has other problems and you need the right things from the right place - check out the mailing list (archives at gmane.comp.emulators.xen.user on news.gmane.org). -- Rod (waiting for the day when IBM use XEN as the final excuse to dump VM :-( (*) It's an old box with a strange SiS board that displays the odd behaviour that old SiS boards appear to do. Took me a while to find a 2.6 kernel level that'd not seize. Luckily the Xen stuff is one of them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
