This line is just to remind us that we currently don't support
multi-session CDROMs. Please ignore (like we do :-)

> ioperm not fully supported - ignore resource release

Again, this is to remind me that I'm lazy SOB and thus have a
slight pang of guilt whenever I see it. Please ignore.

The dummy interface should be autodetected, and you should be
able to access other domains on the same machine just fine.

The xenolinux-2.4.22-sparse directory in the bitkeeper repository
contains all the source modifications. See the
"tools/mics/xeno-clone" script for how to take a normal linux
2.4.22 tree and patch is as xenolinux.

Best,
Ian
