Hi George,

Thanks for the response! :-) Yes, looking back on the How-To, I see you are the one :-)

Are you using the "stable" build or the "unstable" one, as you did with Xen3?

Does that mean PCI devices can be used by more than one domain?

The other bonus of Xen3 is that the devers have included loads of
kernel modules in the default build, so I didnt even have to make a
custom kernel to use my Haupauage WinTV nova cards :)

That sounds good. That's one thing I didn't like about Xen2 was that the default kernel builds included hardly anything that was really needed :-(

I'll go ahead and give it a try. Maybe I can run a Mandriva host system, but use the default kernel builds from the Xen site instead of the Mandriva RPMs and/or building my own kernel(s) :-)
