You download the code, load some dependencies, compile and install. For me (debian) the minimal dependencies are : linssl-dev zlib-dev bin86 bcc=20 elks-libc python2.5-dev python-xml Many distros have pre-built Xen packages. > =20 > =20 > This is the actual Xen hypervisor. > How is this generated ? > I mean if I get the source code from the git.

You will have to install a whole system in your Virtual Machines, most kernels are working very well under the Xen hypervisor, you can even create Windows virtual machines. > =20 >=20 > -- Pasi > =20 > > Regards, > > Onkar > =20 > > _______________________________________________ > > Xen-devel mailing list > > Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com > > http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel > =20 >=20 > _______________________________________________ > Xen-users mailing list > Xen-users@lists.xensource.com > http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
