Re: finishing up the xen port - would funding help?

Hi, i guess a lot of us feel the same (mainly sadness) about the progress here and a lot of us have to feed penguins meanwhile... I personally think, that the virtualization technology in general is one of the key technologies of tomorrow and therefore it makes me even more sad, that FreeBSD f

Hi Alex, do you run 32bit on a 32 or 64bit dom0? Maybe you should try a more recent version of Xen (RHEL has 3.1) This repo might help you : http://www.gitco.de/linux/x86_64/centos/5/rpms/ cheers Kai - "Adrian Chadd" schrieb: > I've only just started seeing filesystem corruption under h

Hi, just as a note, since it is not important in the current state, i guess (but maybe you might have some tweaking tips) Testing the raw performance on my domU (r188436 compiled without WITNESS) seems to fall behind a Linux domU on the same machine: BSD8 Reading: # dd if=/dev/ad0s1 bs=1024k |
