I have just bumped into something that may be of interest to the list.
Xen is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of
multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of
performance and resource isolation.
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/index.html
Since upgrading to the latest security fix kernel from SuSE, /sbin/blogd
dies on boot. From the man pages it looks like it's a SuSE thing for
logging to the system console. But, I can still use VM as a console for
the guest.

This sounds neat, especially with EMC buying VMware. Love to have a space

More than likely, SUSE will _not_ issue a 2.4.24 kernel. What usually
happens is that the fix for a particular problem is back-ported to the level
