OpenVZ is based on Linux Kernel. So, when the disk is partitioned suitably
in the host OS, I think there is no big difference(Apply some patches and
make config) when compiling OpenVZ kernel and Linux Kernel.

The fact is Emulab does not have Fedora12 now. We just have Fedora8 and
Fedora10. :(
I will talk with the Emulab administrators about this.

Not yet. Actually, one of stuffs in our group succeeded to use rpmbuild to
build OpenVZ kernel in Fedora8. But unfortunately, he forgot how he solved
this. The reason I wanted to build a new openvz kernel based on his
image(Fedora8 with OpenVZ supported) is I do not need to repartition the
disk and install utilities. In OpenVZ user guide, it also uses Fedora core
4 as an example to show how to install the host OS. We do have Redhat 9.0
image in our testbed. I will try to compile on Redhat 9.0 or Fedora10 using
rpmbuild. But I think I will try to compile in the traditional way first.
Thanks very much.
