List,

I have yesterday successfully installed Xen 3.0.2 on Ubuntu 6.06 and have
a Ubuntu 6.06 running as guest. I have a couple of questions which is not
clear to me after having read the documentation.

1a. File to partition ?
The guest is stored in a file and not on a partition. Can that be changed
at a later point, perhaps just migrating ?, or do I have to created a new
guest from scratch.

1b. File resizing
As far as I understand it is not possible to extend the size of a
filebased guest OS, is that correct ?

2. Migrating between different host OS
Is is possible to migrate the Ubuntu guest from the Ubuntu host OS to
another host OS say SuSE ?

Best regards
Per
