Re: [Xen-users] Simplest OS possible?

Hi John,

the question is not "what is the
simplest OS? " but what are you going to do with it? From your mail
you plan somthing like benchmark test ... but this make less sense if you
do not plan to run an application in DomU :-) . Any minimal linux (SUSE,
RedHat, Debian and many others) plus compiler will doit for you....
 
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / with kind regards

Subject	[Xen-users] Simplest OS possible?

What is the simplest OS I can install in Xen, preferably
Linux based, and don't tell me MS-DOS :). I have installed a minimal version
of Fedora, but I want something that is even less cluttered. 

I have looked at Minix, but it is not fully supported. I need something
small, lightweight (doesn't have to be multi-threaded or anything), that
will run small C and Assembler programs that I can use to rum some tests.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
