Hi,
The following topic might be a little prematured!
From what i have understood, next generation CPUs such as Pentium D
will integer Vanderpool technology also called IVT, and this technology
should enable Xen 3.x to run MS Windows XP without paravirtualization
kernel modification, right?
If so, here is my question:
Will Xen 3.x enable (/do xen developpers plan on enableing) users to run
Windows XP NFSrooted (or some sort of "software streamed" Windows XP
image on a remote server) ?
I've heard about a "int 13 trick" used by proprietary programs
redirecting disk accesses over the network. If no Windows-NFSroot is
natively supported (i mean as described in the documentation), would Xen
be the right place to implement the int 13 trick for diskless Windows?
BTW, i run my Linux LFS/BLFS 6.0 NFSrooted box under Xen and it works "
'o good Lord" impressively very great. Great job guys ;-)
