I've pulled down the source from Daniel Stodden's linux git tree on xensource, but it looks like it's for debian and I'm running Fedora 14, so I'm trying to sort it out. I run the 3.1.x kernel and don't want to go back to the 2.6.32 that Jeremy has, which has the blktap driver in it. Is there anything out there that will patch a 3.1.x mainline kernel to include the blktap driver? I want to try out drbd/remus, but it's not going anywhere at the moment. Thanks. Mike
