Hi

I'm a newbie so the information might be wrong ... :-( Anyhow: The only way to run Windows XP is with Intel's VT technology which is starting to appear in their CPUs now (VT is Intel's Virtualization technology implemented in the CPU) or AMD's Pacifica technology (which does the same thing). If you don't have a CPU that supports this then you must have a version of Windows XP that was modified to run under Xen (much the same way that Linux kernel is modified to run under Xen). That option only exist to enterprise support clients with a very specific support contract with Microsoft (the exact name and rules escape me right now).




TIA
Paolo

I searched the Wiki, but don't see a beginner's guide there.

Is there an overview of getting Xen setup with Windows/XP, etc. Probably using Fedora as the host OS.


Thanks...
