Just thought I'd pass along that I have successfully installed FreeBSD 7.0=
=20
into a Xen 3.1 HVM. =C2=A0This one went as smooth as I expected, considerin=
g my=20
experience with 6.3. =C2=A0Haven't done any benchmarking or stress testing =
or=20
port installs or anything. =C2=A0But so far it's working nicely.
Here's all the info. =C2=A0If you'd like to see anything else, let me know.
Host hardware:
=C2=A0 Tyan h2000M motherboard
=C2=A0 2x AMD Opteron 2200-series CPUs (dual-core)
=C2=A0 8 GB ECC DDR2-800 SDRAM
=C2=A0 3Ware Escalade 9650SX-12ML PCIe RAID controller
=C2=A0 12x 400 GB SATA harddrives in RAID6 with 1 hot spare (4 TB)
Host software:
=C2=A0 Ubuntu Server 7.10 64-bit version
=C2=A0 Linux kernel 2.6.22
=C2=A0 Xen 3.1
=C2=A0 LVM partitions for all the virtual machines
