Hi! I read the windows port is mostly done on your README file. But that you seem to have troubles about licenses etc. Okay giving out the source code requires an agreement => takes time to check if you can send the source code to a third party and so. Giving the kernel binary => ensure that the third party has a valid license of the Windows OS. So why not just give the compiled Xen modifications, indeed, you take the source, compile it. Then you use a program that will compare the compiled form of both the original kernel, and the ported one. Then the program will make a path. Therefore, you may just freely release the patch. The use will just have to make a copy of his ntoskrnl.exe as xenkrnel.exe. Patch xenkrnl.exe. Edit his boot.ini file as follow: [boot loader] timeout=30 default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional (Xen Edition)" /fastdetect /KERNEL=xenkrnl.exe multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect Regards, Laurent Debacker. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
