Re: [CentOS] CentOS 6 + XEN problem
Hello Rudi, Regarding the tutorial for RHEL6 and Xen I'd like to remind you of the fact that CentOS is 100% compatible clone of RHEL so basically everything you read and find on the internet regarding RHEL6 can usually be applied identically to any CentOS6 system as well ... Regarding those kernels mentioned I'd assume as they are being offered by xen.org directly and made by one of their key developers they can be assumed stable and trustworthy - But if you want to setup a production site with Xen why not rely on XCP or choose another distribution that offers direct support for xen like e.g. debian (have a look at project "kronos" ) or ubuntu as well ...

It just makes thousands of users have to delete another email. Similarly, having a helpful user give the answer that the OP would have found as google hit number 1, wastes everybody else's time. So: use the proper venue instead of posting everything and anything here, and research before posting, are totally appropriate requests. > If we keep acting rude, we will tear apart this community.

And since I have just made noise I am going to shut up about this and any other OT post I see. -Ross ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
