Hi,

I recently had a kernel panic a domU. But that didn't impress xen. I just called 'xm destroy ...' and that's it. So I think your kernel programming would make sense under xen (if you don't touch the things patched by xen).

Cheers,

Immanuel

Hi,

I'm writting some Linux drivers for both 2.4.x and 2.6.x kernel.
Can Xen be use for kernel space programming ?
For example, I'm planning to install both RH9 (2.4.x)
and FC4 (2.6.x) under Xen and do kernel programming
on Xen's VM ... is that possible ?

For kernel programming, bugs in driver usually crash the
whole system ... if I test the drivers under Xen's VM, will that
be safer ?



Thanks
KC
