For HVM, I'd recommend 10.2.alpha4.
If you open Yast, and go to the "System" then "Virtual Machine Management
(Xen)" it will take you through the process of installing a guest. For
Windows, you will want to select "Full Virtualization."
To see if full virtualization is supported, do an "xm dmesg" and grep
according to processor:
AMD: Look for "SVM"
Intel: Look for "VMX" (I think. The only indication on my core 2 duo
is "VMXMON is done")
I have had WinXP running on both AMD and Intel processors.
