To whom it may concern,
I see in the overview page of Xen that a port of Windows XP was
developed for an earlier version, but is no longer available, due
to licensing restrictions...
Are any Windows O/S's supported?
What about Windows 2000?
As the Windows kernel needs to be modified and Microsoft controls
distribution (and the source) -- No.
However, Xen is adding support for Vanderpool/VT (Intel) and
Pacifica (AMD) which will allow *unmodified* guests to run (Like
Solaris, Windows, etc).
I think it will be working for the Xen 3.0 release, however I'm not
sure about availability of hardware.
Is there not a chance microsoft would make a modified version
available to people who already have licenses?
Or are they more concerned with pushing their own virtual server
product...
