Thread-topic: Older release Guest o/s
Using Fedora Core 5 as my host/Dom0 OS, I've successfully installed, configured, and ran a xen guest running Fedora Core 5 but haven't had any luck creating a guest with older versions of Fedora Core or Red Hat.  Does anyone have a set of procedures for doing so?
 
I'd also eventually like to have a guest running Windows Server 2000/2003 for benchmarking.  >From the User's Manual, it appears I need the vmxloader but I don't seem to have it.  Where can I get it?  Do I need it for the older distributions as well?  I found one example of doing this using the hvm loader but it came back with a "kernel not specified" error even though the config file has kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader".
 
Thanks for any help,
Randy
