Re: [Xen-devel] [ANNOUNCE] virtbench now has xen support

Hi Rusty,

thanks for your work. I tried your benchmark on my XEN installation.

<xm info>
release                : 2.6.18-1.2835.slc4xen

</xm info>

and ended up in the following error.    

<make error>
[root@lxdev19 virtbench-bd8e67e50775]# make

make: *** [virtbench] Error 1
</make error>

So first thing I would like to know if my XEN installation is  
compatible with your benchmark suite and if not which are the  
requirements?
Thank you for your help and support,

        Jan Michael
