Hi Len,

I´m totally overwhelmed with your answer.

The use of kvm is one of the great, great news in RHEL, in fact, it´s still
in Beta. So I don´t understad how you can use it on 5.3.

on the other hand I don´t have the qemu-kvm command in my RHEL 5.3 systems.
(the qemu commands comes with the supplementary packages but I don´t have
the kvm command)

How do I install the qemu-kvm command?

Thanks for your answer,

ESG
