Re: [Xen-users] Most stable Xen distro?
I had *very* bad Ubuntu/Xen experiences, even with Hardy Heron. As much
as i'm loathe to recommend a non-debian based dist, it appears that most
of the happy successful users, use Redhat (fedora? possibly CentOS)
I might be wrong, the Ubuntu packages ended up crashing my machine
multiple times in a day because of kernel bugs on high I/O
