Re: [Xen-users] Install Xen on Intel Atom Processor

I'd sooner pay $500 for a 2GHz core 2 duo that is 5x as powerful as an

I'm currently working on a (leisure) project with the goal to operate a
linux server 24/7 just by solar power (electricity generated by
photovoltaic panels).
in theory, the 230Ah battery should keep the hardware (intel atom N270,
mainboard intel D945GSEJT, 1 GB SO-DIMM, 80 GB 2.5" SATA HD) running
for 4 to 7 days without power input from the panels (and, of course,
longer depending on the amount of sun hours).
the total cost for this configuration is about $200 (mainboard, ram,
HD). first, that's not that expensive and second, to keep your suggested
hardware running 24/7 would require much more money for higher battery
capacity and bigger solar panels.
to ryan:
OS on the atom board is centos 5.3 with kernel 2.6.18-128.2.1.el5xen.
boots and runs fine, but haven't yet installed any DomU's.

I am planning to setup a new VM server for testing purpose,
performance is not 1st priority and power saving by using Atom is
attractive.
Anyone tried before and have any opinion to share?
My host and guest are both Linux, so no need HVM.
