RE: AW: [Xen-users] PV- Drivers for Windows (XP, 2003 Server)

["Boudreau Luc" <luc.boudreau@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I found em in the XenExpress package. There's a tool.iso file hidden in some 
Linux tools archive that comes with XenExpress. Open the iso, inside there's 
the setup file for the PV drivers. We use XenSource bundeled in CentOS 5 so I 
don't know if installing the PV drivers in a custom built Kernel or installing 
the driver with a dom0 that was compiled from source will cause any problems. I 
installed them and it's stable for me as far as I know.

Also, some guy on this list named James something works on an open-source 
version. Alpha stage though...

Please let me known, who to get/ install the PV drivers...
