> Hi Bernd, > what is the point in running VirtualBox inside a dom0?
This would allow you to run PV domUs for the OSes that support it (Solaris and Linux) as well as Windows machines. If you have HVM-capable hardware, you can do all that with Xen. If you have older hardware, you need something like VirtualBox to run Windows. > As far as I can determine, what you're asking for is the > equivalent of running VMWare Workstation inside a VMWare ESX > Server instance. Running multple levels of virtualization can be useful. I regularly run Xen inside a VMware instance on a Linux machine. This lets me do Xen development and testing on the same system without having to reboot the whole machine all the time. Obviously I can't use HVM in the Xen machine, but PV works just fine.
