Hello! I'm considering Xen, but the machine we purchased to run our xen
instances on won't be here until after the three day weekend; is it
possible (with xen 2.0, using debian as the dom0) to set up a number of
domUs (again, running debian sarge) with lvm partitions, and then once
we get the new machine here somehow 'transfer' them over to that
machine? The hardware is going to be quite different, with totally
different network cards, amounts of ram, etc. I know vmware provides a
uniform hardware abstraction to all of its clients, and I'm curious if
xen does the same.

Thanks,
                ...Eric
