She can definitly run Windows 7. Albeit I would recommend installing the PV drivers, otherwise it is slow. In regards to USB, try this: [root@phenom ~]# xm usb-list-assignable-devices 2-3 : ID 058f:6387 JetFlash Mass Storage Device [root@phenom ~]# xm usb-add latest-hvm.xm host:058f:6387 Once you have launched the guest. And you should see your USB device in the guest (I only tried this with Linux PVHVM guest) Oh, make sure you have 'usb=1' defined in your config. -- xen mailing list xen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xen
