        If not: Has anyone looked into taking some of the kqemu code,
and
adding support to Xen for non-paravirtualized OS'es on hardware that
can't do HVM?  How easy/hard would it be?

I think it would be hard enough that the return on the effort just
wouldn't be worth it... imho

Oh well... Curious anyway, though: any pointers as to where I might look if I wanted to take a shot at implementing it? I'm probably too lazy; but it's a feature I'd use a lot.

Also: Has anyone on this list tried Win4Lin at all (and either had the same failure as I, or had success getting it to run)?

Thanks,
Adam
