Hi list,

Here is the idea. I am running a domU out of a partition on a USB drive. I use the other partition to store the domU state. Then I carry this USB key to my office and restore the VM at the point where I left it. Thus I am trying to use xen's virtualization to carry my desktop on a USB key.

I have put up a web page explaining the details and a script to prepare the USB key. Please have a look at it and give your feedback.

Thanks,
