 Hello,

 Assuming one builds the Xen hypervisor avaialable from the

 Rather, is it possible to build and mondify the xenproject hypervisor
 and use it to replace the Citrix Xenserver or would one have to get
 the code for Xenserver and compile that instead?

A plain Xenproject hypervisor will not work under XenServer.

However, XenServer is open source and available from
https://github.com/xenserver/

You will find that the hypervisor and tools in use is not too different
from upstream Xen.
