I'm new to Xen, and have been digging around the Internet. I have a Xen
CentOS kernel installed on an Intel 64-bit system:
Linux myhost.com 2.6.18-92.el5xen #1 SMP Tue Jun 10 19:20:18 EDT 2008
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Using:
xen-3.0.3-64.el5_2.9,
kernel-xen-2.6.18-92.el5
I need to learn FreeBSD, and so I thought I'd do it under CentOS using
Xen. My intent was to load FreeBSD 7.x as a domU, but as I perused the
Internet, I am seeing that there are issues with Intel 64-bit CentOS
systems and that the domU kernel needs to have PAE support (I have 16GB
memory on my system).
Given the current state of the Universe, and the fact that I know next
to nothing about FreeBSD at the moment, does anyone have any sage advise
and recommendations for me?
Thanks (in advace - as they say),
deb
