The question is a touch unclear, but I presume you're asking if we
support running RHEL5 as a domU under a Debian dom0. I'm going to go out

that setup.
Why then RHEL in EMC's Vmware is supported?
Very different situation. VMware/EMC is a commercial entity and a Red
Hat Partner[1]. Debian is neither. You purchase a license for VMware and
RHEL. There are clear channels through which you obtain support. Where
do you go for Debian support? Is there an accountable party[2] when
things break? Surely you don't expect Red Hat to fix a problem on the
Debian side...

[2]yes, there are individuals in the debian world 'accountable' for
making sure things work, but nobody who is 'accountable' in the legal
sense, so far as I know. In essence, what legal recourse do you have if
the Debian kernel/xen melts your processors, eats your data, etc?
