Fedora 11 will also ship with PV pv_ops Xen domU support included in the default kernels. There's this bug in F10 which affects 32bit domU installs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=470905 Also see this tip if you want to install 32bit F10 domUs: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-xen/2009-March/msg00067.html F11 (when it's out) should also install out of the box as a Xen PV domU. Also earlier Fedora versions should work as a domU out of the box. If you're talking about dom0 (host) then Fedora 8 is currently the latest Fedora release having Xen dom0 capable kernel. dom0 support will be added back to Fedora when pv_ops dom0 support is included in the vanilla/mainline Linux kernels (merging should happen for Linux 2.6.30). -- Pasi -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
