Hello,

After a bit of effort, I would like to report that I am successfully booting a WinXP guest on an intel mac-mini. This Intel mac is running Ubuntu Dapper and 3.0-testing as dom0. I made a brief write-up and posted it at http://www.scl.ameslab.gov/Projects/mini-xen/. This should cover most of what I had to do to get everything working. I'm now going to try and track down why my custom kernel works but the default initrd kernel doesn't. I'm guessing something is getting loaded that shouldn't. I hope this helps anyone who is having troubles on their intel macs.


It would be great if you somehow could manage to boot Mac OS X in the domU. Or in Dom0 somehow, since MacOS (BSD) is a microkernel architecture.

Please anyone having that working please report. That would superseed Bootcamp in any way.

Greetings,
Robert Welz
