as would i. :-/

my understanding (?) is that passthru to PV domu need to be eliminated
to avoid the aforementioned security hole.

that leaves passthru to HVM -- which requires AMD-V (or intel VT-d
...) extension support. and, i _think_ that means xen ver >= 3.2.0 is
required.

fedora9's not an option. fedora8's "not going to support it" policy,
though understandable on the march to paravirt_ops, leaves little to
lean on in terms of community support ...

best option i'm finding so far is Centos51, with a rpmrebuild of xen
320 from src rpm,

  http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/3.2.0/centos-5.1/xen-3.2.0-0xs.centos5.src.rpm

(if there's a 3.2.1 src rpm available, i haven't found it yet ...)

in the process of trying it myself ...
