Hello,

I'm playing with xen, but I have a doubt:

Where's the difference in the guest installation (or maybe in the host
installation?) when you install a Linux in paravirtualization mode, or
in full virtualization mode (VT or pacifica)?

I mean, how do you tell to xen that you want to run a linux guest in
paravirtualization or in full virtualization mode?

And then, can you run a linux (modified to run under
paravirtualization) in full virtualization mode?

Can I run a linux in paravirtualization mode and another in full
virtualization mode, both simultanously?

Thanks a lot!
And sorry if this is a basic question.
