AMD Pacifica and Intel's VT make possible the virtualization of unmodified operating systems. Is it still necessary to add code to the hypervisor to support specific operating systems, or can Xen, as written, support any arbitrary OS that successfully boots on a PC? (I'm thinking of the BSDs here). Thanks, Dave Feustel -- Lose, v., experience a loss, get rid of, "lose the weight" Loose, adj., not tight, let go, free, "loose clothing" _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
