Does this mean in the future all Fedora kernels will be Xen kernels? Is this wise? If I try to run VirtualBox on a Xen kernel the machine will reboot. If the Vbox module is loaded at runtime it will reboot forever. Yes, I know it's a Vbox issue but what about KVM. Can we run KVM on a Xen kernel?

Or am I reading this completely wrong?
