I may stand to be corrected here, I do not believe IPCop will run 
"paravirtualized" under Xen 3.  I seem to recall that it has something to do 
with Xen 3 not being able to compile a 2.4 kernel properly and/or a Xen 3 2.6 
kernel host not being able to run a 2.4 kernel, even if it is patched with 
the Xen hooks.

It is/was possible under Xen 2.

If you are running on a VT-enabled Intel or AMD chip, I believe it would be 
possible to run IPCop unmodified.

I don't have a VT-enabled chip, so I am running  my domains "paravirtualized", 
but I would love to be running IPCop as my firewall.  Guess I may have to 
wait until I either get a VT-enabled chip or IPCop releases their next major 
release, which is supposed to run a 2.6 kernel :-)
