Crashing into Xen
Well that’s what I call extensive… HowToForge has an excellent article on getting Cambrigde’s Xen Virtual Machine Monitor installed and running on Debian GNU/Linux or recent versions of Ubuntu. Some weeks earlier I saw a demo of Xen running off a live cd provided by some German magazine (guess it must have been FreeX) and was kinda impressed seeing a virtual Debian host same as a NetBSD installation booting up within an already running Debian host system. Perhaps this finally is a good way of getting some minor servers consolidated at work without having to spend money on something like VMWare…
