Re: [Xen-users] Re: Installing Xen on Redhat RHEL4
Yes, CentOS 4 (or RHEL4) works as both domain master (dom0) and guest
(domU). Using the xen-supplied kernels should work, though in my case
I rebuilt the kernel to include drivers for certain devices we use.
You'll need to download the xen source to "xenify" your kernel, though
RedHat has this way of backporting patches to udpate the kernel.
If you don't need to run the official RH-supplied kernel, building
your own should be much easier.
